Arts Council of Pakistan Karachi

The Arts Council of Pakistan, Karachi (Urdu: آرٹس کونسل آف پاکستان کراچی), also known as ACPKHI, is the finest non-profit organization (NPO) in the country today when it comes to performing and fine arts. With state-of-the-art entertainment opportunities available for all segments of society, the Arts Council aims to promote peace and artistic professionalism through various events, theatre, dance, and music academies, literary conferences, creative endeavors, and competitive talent showcases. ^[1][2]

The Arts Council of Pakistan Karachi is arguably the largest council made for the purpose of promoting arts and culture in Pakistan, and perhaps the busiest in terms of organizing events on a yearly basis. Given the kind of sociopolitical turn that the country has taken with reference to religious extremism, it makes the council all the more significant an institution to uphold and foster the traditions of the arts that aim to give society a balanced approach to life. It is the country's oldest and most famous NGO (non-government organization) that deals in promotion and development of arts and crafts in Pakistan.^[1][2][3]
