Kalanand is an online grant giving contest for emerging artists in India aiming to support the artists who have completed their education or are self- taught and want to pursue their career in the field of fine art. The Kalanand program has fellowships that give financial aid along with recognition, an online presence and yearbooks printed and sent to all the leading art institutes, museums and art galleries across the country.

Each year Kalanand hosts an exhibition of the grant recipients. The Grant application is online and has a reach in all states of India. The 2024-25 PDAF Art Grant welcomes all emerging artists that would like valuable exposure in their art career.
