Indian Arts & Culture
since 1985
At MILAP, our mission to unite hearts through arts drives everything we do. We believe in the transformative power of the arts to bring people together, shift perspectives, and create lasting positive change.
To ensure our work reaches and impacts as many people as possible, we focus on three main areas: experiences, learning, and development.
Experience
We produce inspiring and uplifting Indian arts and cultural experiences through concerts, festivals, commissions, collaborative cross-genre work, and content creation for a global audience.
Learn
We offer a variety of essential opportunities to learn through a variety of classes, workshops, resources and more which anyone interested in learning more about Indian arts can engage with – right from grassroots level through to professional artist.
Develop
We invest in the growth of young musicians and dancers in the UK through a comprehensive career pathway. Our Indian music ensembles form the bedrock of this important work, which leads to performance opportunities, music production, commissioning support and more.
We present
National Youth Orchestra
for Indian Music
An innovative Indian music collective of young aspiring and semi-professional musicians
The National Choir
for Indian Music
A bi-annual festival of Indian arts and culture based in the Liverpool City Region
Workshops and year-round classes in Indian music and dance
