ARRTH – Aathun’s Rural Rajasthan Program
From the Heart of the State
ARRTH is an initiative of Aathun to Discover, Support & Enable the rural folk musicians, artists and singers of Rajasthan to increase their livelihood opportunities as well as sustain their passion for music, culture and heritage.
ARRTH is Aathun’s first step towards expanding its vision. The actualization of the program lies in its soulful musical melodies of talented & passionate rural artists, musicians and singers. Under the aegis of the program, we bring to spotlight these traditional rural musicians and instrumentalists of various communities through events, exhibitions and experiences.
The folk musicians of Rajasthan have been badly hit by Covid-19 pandemic. Largely dependent on the tourism industry, millions are now jobless and struggling. The mass gatherings to watch the folk artists perform are now compromised because of the social distancing norms.
Many roadblocks are in their way: bookings cancelled, payments not made, and largely, a complete haul to their business. They have kept alive the folk music of Rajasthan across generations which is why safeguarding them is important. Aathun, through its sessions and donations, has been preserving the heritage and craft of Rajasthan.
Art is central to our lives. We are an all-inclusive experiences hub who curate unique, authentic and passion-driven art experiences and masterclass workshops, both online and offline dedicated to uplift and support artists. With an Artist Community of over 1000+ artists, we offer handcrafted art and crafts learnings, all powered and created by the artists themselves. In short, we create a small world for artists to connect and learn from each other.
The online workshops and offline marketplace is a plethora of art experiences ranging from Tie and Dye, Creating Mini Sculptures, Comics Making, Pichwai Painting, Kerala Murals, Tarkashi, Wooden Blocks, Knife Paintings and so many more- Rajasthan Studio is the easiest way to learn with the artists, by the artist.
Straight from the cultural bounty state of Rajasthan, immerse yourself in the soulful music of these folk instruments and folklore sung by the folk artists of Aathun. Stay up to date with Aathun events and sessions that take place every week.
