An organization dedicated to preserving and promoting local and traditional art, Studio Sattva, located in Whitefield manages quite a lot of activities. For a change, it operates for profit but aims to use most of it in the sustenance and promotion of folk and fine art. The studio facility has an excellent collection of ever-changing artworks by various folk and local artists. Apart from this, the studio dabbles in art education and provides a number of classes and workshops. The art appreciation tours conducted by the studio are a great way to learn and gain knowledge about art and the current trends in art.
