Ar.ty is a partnership set up by two friends to produce films, festivals, and wider artistic events that support the artists of the future. They will be working with established partners to create innovative large-scale events at a Heritage Palace in Rajasthan.
They aim to champion new and young artists by giving them a global platform to flourish and achieve a career. This will begin with support for schools for disadvantaged children to having artists feature on the same bill as global artists.
