(ATLC) Academy of Tribal Language & Culture

SPONSORSHIP OF TRIBAL DANCE TROUPES

Promotion and propagation of rich tribal cultural heritage is another key activity of ATLC. The academy organizes cultural programmes by sponsoring cultural troupes in order to make tribal dance more popular among the general public. At present, there is a growing demand among urban audiences to witness the rich cultural lifestyles (performing arts) of tribal communities. To meet this demand and to promote and propagate tribal cultural heritage, the academy has taken initiatives to promote tribal dance troupes at various Mahotsavs within the state.
