Goa Open Arts is delighted to introduce this year's recipients of the 2026-27 Catalyst and Engage Grants. Their projects span sculpture, film, theatre, painting, photography, design, and interdisciplinary practice, exploring memory, performance, technology, ecology, labour, and cultural traditions through diverse artistic approaches. Over the next six months, the artists will develop new work, culminating in a public showcase at Sunaparanta Goa Centre for the Arts.
Now in its seventh year, these grants continue to support experimental, interdisciplinary, and community-rooted artistic practices across Goa.
