Smriti Rajgarhia is the director of the Serendipity Arts Foundation and Serendipity Arts Festival. She has worked with large collections of Indian art that represent art in India from the 1800s up to now, and has been engaged with spreading arts education and arts awareness through these repositories of information for more than a decade. Trained as an architect, Smriti has curated exhibitions on subjects that reflect the history and relevance of archives. Her main exploration lies in the idea of programming and how this can really help revive interest in the arts through institutional explorations. Her passion for the arts, and the belief that arts and culture can change lives, governs her commitment towards finding ways to reassert the value in the arts. With these two platforms, she hopes to forward her endeavors, exploring newer forms of representation and contextualizing the kind of programming that can be used, to engage with a wider demographic of the audience for the arts in India. She is also personally interested in adapting urban spaces for alternative presentation of the arts, reclaiming the urban and questioning the impact of art and cultural interventions for a city/state/country. Smriti holds a master's degree in design.
