Rithwik Foundation for Performing Arts is able to continue on its mission to promote Indian classical music and dance by partnering up with like-minded organizations. Here are the Key Associations of RFPA, who work with us, organize shows with us, and jointly participate in digital initiatives.

Pancham Nishad
RFPA, as a partner, has started supporting ‘Pratah Swar’ from the year 2020. The tagline says ‘’every concert, new artiste” and staying true to the words, this event has till now showcased various talented artistes through a total of 109 shows of ‘Pratah Swar’ till date. Its objective is to showcase the rich indian traditional performing arts. Pratah Swar is a bold step towards supporting artists at all levels of expertise.
Swarateerth
Swarateerth, an initiative by Pt Jayateerth Mevundi, was launched in 2010. Swarateerth works to encourage the younger generation, especially those from economically weaker backgrounds, to provide opportunities to young artists to build their skills in complementary industries enabling them to continue their artistic pathways. Mevundi ji’s Swarateerth initiative is an invaluable initiative for a music and dance organisation like RFPA.
