PATI Jodhpur Residency & Learning Centre

Opened in early 2025, Jodhpur Arts Week's Learning Centre, is situated in Shree Sumer School, an active primary school located in the heart of Jodhpur's Walled City. Visiting artists are hosted in PATI's Haveli and provided working studio space in Shree Sumer School.

Connecting visiting artists, designers and thinkers, with the Jodhpur's communities, PATI's productive residency programme encourages all participants to commit at least 20% of their time to an active programme of workshops, events and talks, designed to foster create cross-cultural learning and exchange. Exploring alternative commissioning and curatorial models, visiting artists and designers then co-create work in collaboration with Jodhpur's artisans, local school children, and diverse communities, which is later showcased at Jodhpur Arts Week.

To date, visiting artists and contributors have included: Anitha Reddy and Artisans from the Siddhi Community, Ayesha Singh, Awdhesh Tamrakar, Gaspard Combes, Kaimurai, Laxmipriya Panigrahi, Richa Arya, Thukral and Tagra and 54 Faces (Dr. Pam Nyawiri and Judy Sanderson).
