Founded in 1996, MAHĀGĀMI is one of the premiere Arts organisations in India aimed at the preservation, promotion, dissemination, research and social outreach of Indian traditional arts. Led by Parwati Dutta, its Founder-Director and eminent Kathak & Odissi artiste, MAHĀGĀMI is known for its unique gurukul-based pedagogical design, inter-disciplinary dialogues and path-breaking creative offerings. More than 2000 students and 150,000 seekers have benefitted from its pioneering efforts towards introducing and nurturing Kathak, Odissi, Dhrupad and other art forms in the Marathwada region.

 

With the formation of the MGM University in 2019, the Performing Arts Department was named as MAHĀGĀMI GURUKUL Center for Performing Arts with an aim to facilitate immersive learning with an academic edge and global worldview within the University ecosystem. The pedagogy is based on Gurukul Pattern that is widely accepted and acknowledged by Performing Arts departments across many Indian Universities. The synergy between Shāstra-Prayoga-Paramparā-Anusandhān (Textual-Praxis-Tradition-Research) forms the basis of the Gurukul-based institutional pedagogy known as MAHĀGĀMI GURUKUL which is coupled with the choice-based credit system, also incorporating the vision towards implementation of National Education Policy (NEP).

 

MAHĀGĀMI GURUKUL Center for Performing Arts offers University programs in Performing Arts and Indic Studies aimed at empowering the artistically inclined, intellectually awakened learners towards realising a future as mainstream artists, knowledgeable teachers, researchers, curators, arts administrators and policy makers.
