Berklee India Exchange (BIX) is much more than an institute at Berklee. BIX is a movement led by a passionate community of artists, educators, and innovators who share the vision of a world connected by art, curiosity, compassion, and individual social responsibility. It is home to the renowned Berklee Indian Ensemble.
Imagination and creativity make our world richer and more meaningful, and so, every project, every endeavor, and every pathway we build is intended to ignite a creative spark in people’s lives, no matter what their background or life path.
BIX is currently funded solely by philanthropy. We invite you to be part of this movement. Your gift supports student scholarships, touring opportunities, workshops, and visiting artists in addition to allowing BIX to continue creating world-class content. Thank you for investing in our students and being part of our BIX community.
