FELLOWSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT 2006
 
 
Global Arts Village is an emerging international residential art center in
New Delhi, India. We encourage diversity and multicultural exchange among
creative people of all kinds. We practice community living, sharing meals

eco-friendly environment for creative work. The Global Arts Village is a
three-acre property that includes gardens, a multi-purpose studio, sculpture
workshop, a meditation and performance hall, a common building, a dance
studio, performance spaces and accommodations. The buildings are in

structures with their natural environments. The Village offers residency

creative disciplines. We are building a community that blends art, culture
and consciousness. Individuals with exploratory spirits are invited to join.
