India Foundation for the Arts (IFA)
invites proposals from
Government-aided and Non-Profit Schools in India
for Arts-Integrated National School Projects
under the Arts Education programme
Deadline extended to Saturday, October 22, 2022
The Arts Education programme at IFA, Kali Kalisu (‘learn’ and ‘teach’ in Kannada), aims to make ‘learning’ an engaging and joyous experience in schools by using different art forms for curriculum-based teaching pedagogies.
In keeping with this idea, IFA invites project proposals from Government-aided and non-profit schools located in non-metropolitan areas across India that aim to create a solid foundation for arts-integrated teaching pedagogies and encourage curiosity and creativity among students. IFA seeks to implement arts-integrated projects in these schools to strengthen teaching and learning through arts education.
