Aalamwaar teams up with University of South Florida to support
research into Indian Kalamkari arts of hand-dyed and
hand painted fabrics.
The
Center
for India Studies at
USF focuses on being a significant link between the
academic, professional, and community segments in the
greater Tampa Bay area and beyond, including
partnerships and collaborations with institutions and
projects in India. The Center’s mission is both to
enhance academic research and curricular understanding
about the Indian subcontinent and to share the wealth of
India’s cultural, spiritual and artistic traditions with
the world community.
Aalamwaar will work with
Dr. Gurleen Grewal,
Director - Center for India Studies to further research
into understanding and preservation of kalamkari
arts of painting and printing fabrics with natural dyes.
