Since then, SAF hosted the
2012 Kathmandu Arts Festival and the 2017 Kathmandu Triennale, and currently runs an education
initiative training art managers, curators, and critics to build and support the growth of Nepali
contemporary art practices.
Over the years, SAF has partnered with many artists, art institutions and organizations to host
exhibitions, workshops and art projects. The Foundation has been engaged in over 60 programs
since its founding, including partnering with Artworks for Change (Oakland, California) to provide a
platform for sex-trafficked and abused Nepali women to tell their stories, organizaing two editions of
the Kathmandu Triennale and starting its own arts education program through the Siddhartha Arts
Foundation Education Initiative (SAFEI).
