funding. It works with a number of artforms with
the focus on music (from throughout the Asian
subcontinent and hybrid British-Asian artforms). Its
activities include residencies for musicians from
India, schools and community workshops,
performances and outreach work. Its Raga Muffins
Project is aimed at 8 to 18-year-olds and creates
open access opportunities for young people to
engage in South Asian music-making in the school
holidays, through intensive musical residencies, led
by experienced Asian classical musicians in sitar,
santoor, tabla and voice. It is a member of the
South Asian Music Consortium (see National
touring consortia in this section).
