The mission of Sankalpa:

To provide supportive spaces, tools and training for open creative expression, nurturing awareness reflected in art.

To facilitate global art exchanges, bridge barriers between cultures, and explore transformation through connection.

Sankalpa provides expressive arts therapy and community art programs, bridging art and intention ​as tools for insight, growth, empowerment, connection and healing since 2010.
​
Community art outreach is offered with a mobile Art Cart open to all, where creativity is encouraged beyond fear and judgment. Individual, family and group sessions are offered in the Sankalpa Art Center, a hub for expressive arts therapy based in Auroville, south India.

Krupa challenges western values in art - such as focusing on the product and perfectionism, instead maintaining that everyone has something special to contribute. She also shares about life in her artistic community in India, including movies of her art forms to demonstrate how she harnesses the power of community and creativity in the moment.
