National Mission on Cultural Mapping (NMCM), under the aegis of Ministry of Culture and the Indira Gandhi Centre for the Arts (IGNCA), is aimed at addressing the necessities of preserving the threads of rich Indian Art and Cultural Heritage, converting vast and widespread cultural canvas of India into an objective Cultural Mapping while creating strong ‘Cultural Vibrancy’ throughout the nation.

Cultre created frameworks, training guides, modules, videos and organized workshops for identification, collection and recording of cultural assets and resources.

In collaboration with the Goa Tourism Department and Cultre, Airbnb curated 20+ unique experiences across the Northern and Southern districts of Goa as a part of the Rediscover Goa Festival. The festival focused on exploring and experiencing the eclectic culture, rich heritage, musical traditions, culinary delicacies and thriving landscapes of Goa.

Cultre, in collaboration with InterGlobe Foundation and IndiGoReach, organised heritage walks in Bhubaneswar, Prayagraj and Shillong in collaboration with Cultre. As part of the ‘My City My Heritage’ campaign, these walks aimed to raise awareness about the value and importance of heritage and culture in India and set the tone for conversations and partnerships around the preservation of tangible and intangible heritage.

With the growth of the cultural and creative industries and their increasing contribution to the economy, there is a visible interest in bringing together the spheres of arts and management.

To this end, an arts management workshop was held virtually for MA and PhD students of the National Museum Institute. The program consisted of lectures, presentations and case study sessions by experts followed by Q&A rounds and discussions.

An online workshop designed for the ages of 10-15. It is a one-of-a-kind workshop that introduces participants to the many facets of archaeology in general and the Harappan Civilisation in particular.

In the first edition, the workshop includes interactive sessions conducted by Mr. Arsh Ali, acknowledged and certified as India's youngest archaeologist, and Ms. Meenakshi Vashisth, a culture and heritage management professional with education and experience in the field of archaeology.

Our approach to this workshop is perfectly suited to a child’s natural curiosity and eagerness to roll up their sleeves and explore the world around them. What is archaeology? How does it help us reconstruct the past through the material remains of those who used to live hundreds and thousands of years ago? How do we recognise an archaeological mound when we are on a road trip with our parents? The idea is to discuss these simple queries regarding complex concepts in a fun and engaging way.

This National Museum, New Delhi visit was organised to bring the beauty and meaning of our rich historical and cultural past to the students. While we explore the valuable objects and artefacts displayed at the museum, we will get an insight into the cultural and social contributions through various ages, and dynasties of Indian history. It an excellent way to know how India was placed historically, socially, economically, and culturally in the world map and amidst the other world civilizations and dynasties.

During this Museum exploring day, the walk starts off with a brief introduction to the museum and Indian history. We then proceed to exploring the Indus valley civilization gallery, one of most exhaustive and varied collections in the museum. Proceeding to the dynastic galleries, traversing through Maurya, Shunga, Satavahana, Kushan, and Gupta periods. We then proceed to the miniature paintings section, this gallery showcases some stunning Paintings from Medieval Period- Mughals, Rajasthan/Rajput, Pahari and Sikhs artworks.
