| Series notes | Sampad's literature activities fall into three areas of work; storytelling, writing and reading. Sampad endeavours to provide development programmes for south Asian writers and storytellers in the Midlands. Sampad has held several book launches, scriptwriting workshops, literature conferences and has participated in national library and book tours. |
| Collection notes | Sampad was founded in 1990, under the directorship of Piali Ray OBE. The arts organisation was established to strengthen the infrastructure of South Asian arts in the West Midlands and Birmingham region. Due to Director Piali Ray's background as a dancer, this south Asian arts development agency has retained its strengths in dance, however its current remit is much wider, covering cross art forms of music, theatre, crafts and literature within education and community environments. |
