“Santiniketan has always been a land for discourse where the individual transforms, both internally as well as through interaction with the contemporary world cultures at large. Arthshila Santiniketan is a space that exactly captures this spirit- of transforming, through expanding one’s vision.”

— Soumyadeep Roy, Centre Coordinator, Arthshila Santiniketan
