Govandi Arts Festival

Community Design Agency (CDA) Lamplighter Arts CIC (UK) and Streets Reimagined (UK) come together to create the first of its kind “Govandi Arts Festival”. Starting in August 2022 with six months of artist mentorships and residencies within the neighbourhood the Festival culminates on 15th February 2023 till 19th February 2023 with an array of events open to the public.  Govandi Art Festival has a robust arts-based framework focussed on building and showcasing the skills/talents of spatially/culturally marginalised communities through inclusive processes. Supported by the British Council Govandi Arts Festival is part of the ‘India/UK Together a Season of Culture’. The season celebrates and strengthens the bilateral relationship friendship and vibrant cultural bonds between the two countries and also marks India’s 75th anniversary.
