My Open Muse (MOM) is a charitable initiative inspired by creative expression, philanthropic freedom, and community impact, supported by the Sadbhav Foundation, Mumbai.
HeartWorks 2026 – Art as Circle, under the umbrella of MOM, is an art-driven philanthropy initiative. The Mumbai Edition will showcase over 100 artworks benefitting seven curated NGOs that support diverse causes. This program reflects a commitment to creative freedom for artists and philanthropic freedom for patrons, inviting everyone to support the causes that resonate with them.
Hosted live at IF.BE on 16-17 January 2026 in Mumbai’s Ballard Estate, the exhibition is a public celebration of art’s transformative potential—honouring the artists’ gifts and empowering visitors to give in return. HeartWorks 2026 is not just an exhibition but a gathering rooted in inclusion, dignity, and action, inviting all to step into the circle—not only to witness, but to belong. With broad NGO representation, the initiative enables people to choose causes close to their hearts—such as children’s welfare, animal welfare, senior citizens, rural development, women’s empowerment, and the environment. HeartWorks brings together photographers, artists, and creators who donate their work, creating a space where anyone can purchase art as a joyful gift and support a cause of their choice.
Founded by Falguni Sheth-Kapadia, My Open Muse reflects her vision to give back to society through innovative, heart-led ventures uniting creativity, community, and social impact. This first edition of HEARTWORKS is co-founded by Rachana Darda, co-created with Shilpa Bhagat, partnered with IF.BE, IRAM Art and curated by Satyajit Dave. Through your support, this circle can grow stronger and more impactful—helping to create a positive difference for the future.
