Both events further our objectives of showcasing the various facets of the creative disciplines, whilst also fostering cultural growth and energising contemporary practice across India. This is a very small taster of what's to come at the third edition of the Festival, where we'll present almost ninety projects, exhibitions, performances and workshops," Sunil Kant Munjal, Founder of The Serendipity Arts Foundation, said in a statement.

The symposium will be co-chaired by Rahaab Allana, Curator (Photography) and Annapurna Garimella, Curator (Craft) at the Serendipity Arts Festival 2018. The keynote address will be delivered by Curator (Visual Arts) Ranjit Hoskote.
