Arts Council of Pakistan Karachi

The Arts Council of Pakistan Karachi (Urdu: آرٹس کونسل آف پاکستان کراچی), also known as the Karachi Arts Council is a government owned organization for promotion of the Arts in Pakistan. 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.
