Sabhyata Foundation, a Smarak Sarathi under the Government of India’s Adopt a Heritage 2.0 initiative, signed an MoU with the Delhi Tourism and Transport Development Corporation (DTTC), to curate and deliver cultural events across Delhi’s heritage and public spaces. The MoU was signed in the presence of the Honourable Chief Minister of Delhi, Smt. Rekha Gupta, along with other distinguished dignitaries.
Avantika Dalmia, Co‑Chairperson, Advisory Board, Sabhyata Foundation, said, “We are grateful to the Honourable Chief Minister of Delhi, Smt. Rekha Gupta, for her encouragement and vision of making heritage more accessible and engaging. Delhi’s heritage offers a powerful opportunity to bring culture and public life together. Through this partnership with the Delhi Tourism & Transportation Corporation (DTTC), we aim to build a consistent, city-wide presence of thoughtfully curated cultural experiences.”
The partnership establishes a 3 year collaboration to deliver a structured calendar of cultural programming that boosts tourism and deepens public engagement with Delhi’s heritage. It will bring the city’s historical legacy to life through curated experiences, including festivals, performances, art-led initiatives, heritage walks, and storytelling while actively engaging local artists, artisans, and communities.
A key focus will be the development of curated evening and night-time experiences across heritage sites and public spaces, aimed at strengthening Delhi’s night tourism ecosystem and enhancing visitor engagement.
Under the partnership, Sabhyata Foundation will lead the conceptualisation and execution of programmes. A joint steering committee will oversee the planning and delivery of the annual cultural calendar.
Building on initiatives ranging from immersive experiences to large-scale cultural festivals and public programming at heritage sites, Sabhyata Foundation aims to create greater continuity in how these spaces are activated and experienced by the public.
