TYPES OF GRANT: Funding for Indian Non-government organizations.

Objective
The objective of the Scheme is to support voluntary cultural organizations and government-aided cultural organizations in their efforts to create appropriately equipped training, rehearsal and performance spaces for artistes.

Eligible Projects
Grants will be given to projects for creating cultural spaces, which will include:
• Conventional Cultural Spaces for Performing Arts: 
a) Performance venues, like Auditoria, Open-air Theatres, Concert Halls.
b) Rehearsal halls for Theatre/ Music/ Dance.
c) Training Centres/ Schools for Theatre/ Music/ Dance.

• Flexible Spaces, i.e., Studio Theatres, etc: Non-proscenium rehearsal-cum-performance spaces, referred to as Studio Theatre or Experimental Theatre that are characterized by the following special features:
a) A small theatre, with all the essential equipment for the performance of live music, dance or theatre or combination of these arts;
b) An unconventional space that cannot qualify as an auditorium in the traditional sense; therefore, the stage or performance area is not normally placed within a proscenium arch nor raised too high or separated from the audience by a clearly demarcated division.
c) A seating arrangement for spectators that is totally flexible and can be moved fluidly from one part of the space to another depending on the artistic aim of a particular performance; therefore, the seats/chairs must not be fixed in position.
d) A capacity that usually does not go over 100 to 200; therefore, such a space is often called a “little theatre” or “intimate theatre”, because it allows for close-up and intimate viewing by spectators.
e) One or two adjoining greenroom(s) / dressing room(s) /makeup room(s) with toilet(s) for the performers, and a storage area; therefore, the entire unit, though minimal, functions as a theatre in every sense.

a) New construction or purchase of a built-up space.
b) Renovation/ up gradation/ modernization/ extension/ alteration of an existing building/ space/ facility.
c) Remodeling of the interiors of an existing built-up space/cultural centre.
