Amrita Sher-Gil Cultural Centre in Budapest
Tucked away in a quiet corner of District II, the Amrita Sher-Gil Cultural Centre (ASCC) serves as a vibrant cultural outpost of the Embassy of India in Budapest. Named after the celebrated Hungarian-Indian painter, Amrita Sher-Gil, the centre is a hub for arts, tradition, and intercultural exchange.
Since its establishment, the ASCC has become a welcoming space for anyone curious about India’s rich heritage — whether through visual arts, classical and contemporary performances, cinema, or hands-on workshops. The Centre regularly hosts exhibitions, such as those celebrating Sher-Gil’s artistic legacy, and organizes cultural programs including Indian classical dance and music events, Diwali celebrations, and traditional crafts demonstrations.
For those looking to deepen their engagement, ASCC offers regular yoga sessions, Hindi language courses, and a vibrant Indian Film Club that screens everything from Bollywood favorites to historical epics. During events like the International Day of Yoga, the Centre draws hundreds of participants from all over Hungary, promoting well-being and unity.
More than just a venue, the ASCC functions as a cultural bridge — connecting Hungarians and Indians through shared experiences, dialogue, and mutual appreciation. Whether you’re attending a live performance or exploring Indian calligraphy in a weekend workshop, a visit to the Centre is a journey through India’s timeless spirit — right in the heart of Budapest.
