POSHAK PURALEKH
In 2019-2020, CICD celebrated its almost 40-year-old costume archive with its project Poshak Puralekh, funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund. This project looked at around 300 costumes accumulated since the Centre was formed in 1981 by Nilima Devi MBE. The best selection from these costumes was then presented to Leicester Museums, Wolverhampton Art Gallery, Nottingham Museum and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.

PLURALITY OF ABHINAYA
A beautful exploration of 'Abhinaya' by acclaimed classical dancers – Nilima Devi MBE (Kathak) and Anusha Subramanyam (Bharatnatyam). Enhanced by live music, this was a true collaboration between the archaic and the new, transmitted through expression and emotions found in 12th-century Indian texts, contemporary Britsh poetry and real stories taken from community women.
