The French Institute has started an initiative titled Villa Swagatam.
“We wish to create a community of French artists who will learn from the rich savoir-faire and history of the country and be willing to engage with it long-term. The chosen French residents who are chosen will have in common a strong desire to learn about India, its cultural ecosystem, and its know-how.” Says the villa Swagatam Website.
