I thoroughly enjoyed the arts management training workshop that Anupa conducted for us. Her energy is infectious. and it was great to see my staff so eager to work and totally charged. The effort and detailing she puts into planning the session, as well as the whole road through which she directed my entire team over the last few months is really motivating!

Past Projects
the loft at lower parel
THE LOFT at Lower Parel, an arts project space, encouraged creative interaction, national and international residencies, curatorial projects, and was a studio gallery and a source for exciting art acquisitions. Over 2008 – 2012, THE LOFT at Lower Parel conducted international residencies and studio shows for Indian artists, besides inviting well known curators to present an exhibition/project based on ongoing concerns. From 2013 – 2018 THE LOFT at Lower Parel presented curated exhibitions by emerging and leading artists from around the world, including Mahbabur Rahman and Zenita Komad among others.
Arts Reverie
This six-year-long project began with the restoration of a 1920s heritage property. This house, Arts Reverie, served as the nexus for national and international artists interested in developing community arts projects of varying scale. Anupa supported international artists by embedding them in a large network of arts professionals and patrons, both in India as well as in the United Kingdom. She helped artists enhance concepts, find local collaborators, and work with the local government to exhibit these projects towards the end of widening the reach of arts awareness.

Anupa has served as the director of the Kala Ghoda Festival, was a consultant for the Mumbai Art Festival, and is the founding director of the Ahmedabad International Arts Festival. In these roles, she developed the programming and content for each festival, including city-wide public space arts exhibits, built partnerships with local government, internationally and nationally renowned arts organisations, and artists, raised over $500,000 in sponsorship, and created and marketed the overall vision for the festivals.
