Jaquar Pavilion Park
Pavilion Park 2026, supported by Jaquar, evolves in ambition and scope while remaining grounded in its commitment to experimentation, accessibility, and public engagement. Curated by Aric Chen and guided by an international jury, 50 professionals from the fields of architecture, design, and art are invited to respond to the curatorial brief "Mumbai Manuscripts". From these, eight proposals will be selected by the curator and jury for realisation.
