Music, Literature, Visual and Performance Arts

This focus group seeks to be at the heart of the movement to focus on and to help define the cultural identity of Chandigarh and the Tricity. Though Chandigarh is young city, it is sufficiently old to now proudly showcase its culture. Towards this end, the group would like to put together Musical, Art, Cultural & Literary events by not only encouraging the local talent but also bringing in artists of National/International standing, and perhaps eventually be a part of the formulation of a cultural calendar for the city.
