Milapfest runs a high quality training programme for students of all backgrounds, ages and abilities. The Artschool offers open and accessible courses in Indian dance and music, by tutors from the UK and India.

The programme runs in the Cornerstone and Capstone buildings at the brand new Creative Campus of Liverpool Hope University.

For the first time ever in the musical city of Liverpool, Milapfest offers a diverse mix of arts forms, with a curriculum that covers performance, theory and practice. You don't need to have any experience to join Milapfest's artschool, and even if you would like to learn Indian music on your own instrument, there is an opening for you.

Milapfest's Artschool takes place in an excellent atmosphere with oustanding teachers.
