Pickle Factory Logo © Pickle Factory Pickle Factory Dance Foundation is a hub for the practice, discourse and presentation of dance and movement work, housed in spaces repurposed for the arts in Calcutta. Nomadic at the moment, we are working towards a permanent venue for dance located in a repurposed space in the architecturally textured fabric of Calcutta. This will a home with a cosmopolitan and plural ethos to think, know, talk and imagine all things dance - locally, nationally and internationally.
