Sampad is a dynamic development agency
for South Asian arts based in Birmingham, UK.
We promote the practice and appreciation of
the diverse art forms originating from India,
Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka, as well
as British Asian and cross-cultural work.
From classical to contemporary forms, spanning
dance, music, theatre, literature and visual arts,
Sampad brings world class artists to the
West Midlands and beyond and provides an
international platform for local, emerging talent.
Above all, we strive to ensure high quality South
Asian arts remain accessible in theatres, concert
halls, schools and community centres across the
region and reach communities who otherwise
would not engage with the arts.
Sampad is magnificent, it’s doing a very good job for the community, promoting our art among the local people.

“DanceIntense achieves the very commendable feat of bringing together dancers, teachers and choreographers who share common concerns despite their international spread and the diversity of their current locations.
Shobana Jeyasingh, DanceIntense Toronto 2009 participant ”
Sampad acts as a cultural broker and catalyst to bring
together the right people to make memorable events happen.
We bring new South Asian audiences into established arts
venues, connect artists from different artforms and cultural
backgrounds and make links from Birmingham to
South Asia and the South Asian
diaspora around the world.
