Rooftop's Journey
What started as “The Circle Community” in 2020, has now transformed into “Rooftop” after two years of hard work and incredible persistence. Two years of not only surviving but also growing through the devastating times of the global pandemic. The original idea was to build a unique community that could unite local artisans, offering them a platform to showcase their art forms. With the intent to empower India’s authentic art and its practitioners, TCC operated on an invite-only basis
With the brutal hit of the pandemic, especially on a young brand, all hopes for future business were lost. But Kartik Gaggar, CEO & Founder of the Rooftop, was not the one to quit easily. With everyone transitioning to a virtual medium, he saw a great opportunity to host live workshops and bridge the gap between artists and art enthusiasts.
Receiving amazing responses was the only push needed to grow and explore more possibilities around it. After detailed market research, recruiting the right team, and a comprehensive business strategy, Rooftop was born. With nothing much as a precedent to learn from, it was indeed a bold step. But resilience, passion, and intense labour bore sweet fruits at last. An initial community of only 50 artists from Jaipur has now grown into a family of 2100+ award-winning master artists from all corners of India. Presently, Rooftop hosts more than 700 art experiences, engaging over 25,000 attendees from 20+ countries worldwide.
With advancements in technology and technical aid, Rooftop has now launched a mobile application for both iOS and android devices for a more seamless, and personal experience. Learning art has never been more fun! Now you can take classes on the go, anytime and anywhere!
