STRUCTURAL EDIFICE

With the grant of spacious land from the State Government and liberal financial help from individuals, its dream of having a building of its own was fulfilled. With that, the activities also increased manifold, each winning the approbation of dignitaries not only in the country, but also from abroad. The Governments at the State and the Centre, as also international organisations like the UNESCO kept up their uninterrupted liason with the Parishath and its work, often extending their patronage is more than one way.

As the Parishath started attracting more participation of artists, it set up a fully equipped graphic workshop and a sculpture studio. They are working in full swing, meeting the needs of artists. Now, the Parishath’s building is almost complete, the first two phases costing Rs. 1.32 crore. They consist of several sprawling galleries, a foyer and office accomodation. Only the last phase remains to be completed.

To facilitate proper and smooth working that involves greater financial commitments, a Trust has been formed. Founded in 1975, it has four nominees of the government besided a few well-known public figures. Mr. S.M.Krishna, a founder trustee, is its current President. It is fortunate that Mr. Ramakrishna Hegde and Dr. Jeevaraj Alva, the current President of the Parishath, kindly agreed to be its trustees.
