Peers Student Residency 2003

2003 saw the first PEERS Student Residency with graduates from Jamia Milia Islamia, Delhi, J.J School of Art, Mumbai, Central University, Hyderabad, M.S University, Baroda and the Government College of Art, Chandigarh. PEERS 2003 was entirely self-funded with assistance from arts organizations such as the Sakshi gallery. Working on a very tight budget, the students lived and worked in New Delhi for 4 weeks.

A residency for students was the first of its kind in India. In an attempt to provide a new space for emerging new voices, it became a big success. So much so that KHOJ applied to, and received funding from the Indian Foundation for the Arts (IFA Bangalore) for the next 3 program
