New Delhi, March 13, 2026 – InterGlobe Foundation, the philanthropic arm of InterGlobe  Enterprises, marked a significant milestone in the field of cultural & heritage preservation  space with the launch of the inaugural ‘Heritage Dialogue’, a strategic multi-stakeholder  forum, and the third edition of its flagship annual exhibition, ‘Tangible Conversations,  Intangible Heritage’ (TCIH). 

The day commenced with the ‘Heritage Dialogue’, jointly organized by InterGlobe Foundation,  Sahapedia, and IndiGoReach, convening leaders from the corporate, cultural, and academic  sectors to discuss how collective investment can be more meaningfully directed toward  protecting India’s built and intangible legacy. Conceived as a long-term, participative platform,  the dialogue integrates heritage conservation into the broader framework of sustainable  development and responsible corporate engagement. This initiative highlights InterGlobe  Foundation’s role in facilitating cross-sector partnerships necessary to sustain India’s diverse  heritage. It aims to build a shared understanding of emerging needs and opportunities for long term, collaborative support. 

The evening transitioned into the formal inauguration of ‘Tangible Conversations, Intangible  Heritage’ (TCIH) at Sunder Nursery. Ms. Rohini Bhatia, Chairperson of InterGlobe  Foundation, presided over the ceremony alongside distinguished cultural practitioners,  institutional leaders, and heritage enthusiasts. The event culminated with a spellbinding 

Dastangoi performance at the historic Humayun’s Tomb Auditorium. 

The 10-day exhibition, hosted at the Sunken Gardens in Sunder Nursery with AKTC as the  venue partner, is open from March 13 to March 22, 2026 (11 am to 7 pm). This year’s theme,  “Living Archives: Ritual, Performance and the City”, expands the idea of archives beyond  documentation and explores heritage not as a static relic of the past but as a dynamic entity  embodied in the daily lives and rituals of people. By focusing on society, tangible, and  intangible heritage, the exhibition highlights the Foundation’s work in engaging communities to  preserve India’s legacy. 

Through a blend of photography, film, and immersive installations, the exhibition brings three  distinct narratives to life: 1) Doli Yatra of Lord Rudranath, Uttarakhand: Immersive documentation of a sacred pilgrimage and the community devotion that sustains it. 2) Bhand  Pather: Kashmir’s Traditional Folk Theatre: An exploration of a centuries-old art form and its  cultural nuances. 3) City as a Living Archive: Drawing from the ‘My City My Heritage’ initiative,  

this exhibit re-imagines cities as dynamic cultural ecosystems shaped by neighbourhood life. Through these projects, the exhibition invites visitors to reflect on how heritage is created,  sustained, and transformed in the past and present. 

The TCIH exhibition serves as the annual showcase of the InterGlobe Heritage Fellowships,  an initiative that empowers individuals to explore the lesser-known facets of India’s heritage  and highlights and felicitates their work. Since the program’s inception, nine fellows have been  recognized for their contributions to cultural preservation.

Rohini Bhatia, Chairperson, InterGlobe Foundation, said, “The ‘Tangible Conversations,  Intangible Heritage’ exhibition reflects our deep commitment to protecting India’s diverse  cultural legacy. This year’s theme beautifully illustrates how our heritage is a living, breathing  entity sustained by communities and their practices. Through the InterGlobe Heritage  Fellowships and the new Heritage Dialogue, we aim to foster a deeper appreciation for our vibrant traditions and inspire collective action required to ensure they thrive for generations to  come.” 

For over a decade, InterGlobe Foundation has led landmark conservation and preservation projects through its various partners. Some of its major initiatives include the conservation and  cultural revival of Abdur Rahim Khan-I-Khanan’s mausoleum in Delhi, the cultural mapping and  documentation of eighteen cities under the ‘My City My Heritage’ campaign, the restoration of  ‘Indra Kund’ stepwell in Delwara, the tile restoration of Qutb Shah’s Mausoleum, and Heritage  Fellowships.
