Shrestha founded Artudio, a center for contemporary arts to advance art practices, initiatives, and visual arts education amongst grassroots communities, public spaces, and larger audiences. He established the Pran Community arts center in his home village of Gairimudi in the wake of the devastating 2015 earthquakes that affected the locality heavily.
