AN APPEAL
We would sincerely like to thank all our
well wishers in India and abroad, who have contributed to
our work in this section so far.
In our bid to preserve, sustain and revive an interest
in ritual arts, support the handful of artistes
practising the dying tradition as well as develop a new
body of artistes who can continue the tradition within
the temples, Arangham Trust welcomes outside help and
contributions.
All cheques or money orders (national and
international) can be made to "Arangham Trust" and will
be acknowledged.
Contributions made in Indian rupees will enjoy tax
exemption under Section 80 G.
Kaisiki Natakam
Arangham has begun pioneering work in reviving a tenth
century performance art unique to temples in southern
Tamil Nadu. Traditional communities of dancers and
musicians and their invaluable repertoire and literature
of ritual performances like "Kaisiki Natakam" are being
sustained and revived so that their art can breathe again.

Project Kaushal
is another sphere of Arangham's revival work, where we
hope to amalgamate and forge dynamic links with Indian
craft communities as well as folk dance and theatre
groups. ...details
Arayer Sevai
a visual enactment of the passionate expression by
Vaishnavite saints which were an integral part of Vishnu
worship 1000 years ago, is now confined to a handful of
practitioners who themselves are on the threshold of
fading away. Arayer Sevai which means 'the service or
offering of the royal priests' falls under the category of
drama. ...details
