It was registered under the Society Act, 1860 and also recognized by the National Lalit Kala Akademi, New Delhi and Tamil Nadu Ovia Nun Kalai Kuzhu (Art & Culture Department). 

TACIA was initiated with strength of 300 aspiring artists with a vision of promoting and encouraging young & enthusiastic artists to facilitate development of art and culture among general public.Subsequently, through TACIA, the ‘Pallavaa Artists Village’ was founded in 1991 by Dr.B.R. Annapillai at Padappai neat Tambaram, Tamil Nadu.TACIA has conducted Annual Exhibitions, Artists camps, Art demonstrations, Competitions & Seminars across Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Pune, Kolkata etc with the main aim of promoting art & culture in India. 

TACIA requires financial support and encouragement in order to continue our service to the society. Tamil Nadu Government needs to reform the Tamil Nadu Ovia Nunkalai Kuzhu for helping artist’s development. We would request the public and corporate to buy our exhibits and encourage artists. We assure that our paintings would certainly adorn your reception halls. We hope that someday, someone will acknowledge our sincere work and help to take TACIA to a global arena.
