Our Studio Story: The Heart of Culture Chauraha
From our first studio in Delhi to our online creative community, this is the journey of how we teach art.
A bittersweet moment with our students on one of the last days before we temporarily closed our Delhi studio. The journey continues online.

About Our Studio & Story
While our physical Delhi studio is currently on pause due to our own travels, our art journey has truly expanded. We now connect with students across different time zones, bringing that same small-batch, step-by-step guidance right into your living room through our live online workshops.
Culture Chauraha started quite simply with Ritu Aunty's art classes in 2016. The name means 'crossroads,' which felt right because our journey has been a series of shifts—moving between cities, navigating the pandemic, and eventually bridging the gap between our Indian roots and our current global presence.
We believe art should be a break from the day, not another task to tick off. That's why we moved our focus to small-batch online sessions. Whether it's impasto painting with a palette knife or exploring printmaking, we keep the groups small (usually 8 to 15 people) so you aren't just a face on a screen. You get actual instruction, corrections, and encouragement.
We have hosted everything from student exhibitions like 'Through the Eyes of a Child' to specialized printmaking masterclasses. Even though we aren't at a physical location in Delhi right now, the community we built there stays with us. We have adapted our teaching methods to work for both IST and EST time zones, ensuring that no matter where you are, you can pick up a brush or a palette knife and create something you are proud of. We don't care if you have a degree or have never held a paintbrush—we care that you enjoy the process of making something, just for yourself.
