About this opportunity

This biennial grant of CAD 15,000 can be used anywhere in the world by anyone in the world toward a project that enhances knowledge about Indian textiles, dresses, or costumes. Applicants can include scholars, curators, educators, community leaders, artists, and enthusiasts. Projects can be research-based or creative and must further the preservation, documentation, encouragement, improvement, interpretation, or revival of Indian textile arts towards enhancing a critical awareness about their history and/or future. Through the support of such activities, the grant is meant to encourage cultural understanding, institutional collaboration, and public engagement.
