Our Mission
Sthapana Charitable Trust is dedicated to the preservation, protection, and promotion of Odisha’s indigenous knowledge, encompassing its rich heritage of art, culture, literature, music, and dance. Our mission is to mobilize and inspire talent to build a sustainable future rooted in peace and harmony. SCT strives to revive traditional art forms collectively known as “Panch Kala,” including Sand Art, Sculptures, Fine Arts, Literature, Music, and Dance. We also focus on passing down Odisha’s unique traditions, such as Bhagavat Tungis, Kirtan, Pala, Daskathia, Sahi Jata, and Bara Masa Tera Parba, to future generations.
STHAPANA is more than a concept—it is an awakening of the inner self towards a harmonious and sustainable society.
