Silkroad, formerly the Silk Road Project, Inc., is a not-for-profit organization, initiated by the cellist Yo-Yo Ma in 1998, promoting collaboration among artists and institutions, promoting multicultural artistic exchange, and studying the ebb and flow of ideas. The project was first inspired by the cultural traditions of the historical Eurasian Silk Road trade routes and now encompasses a number of artistic, cultural and educational programs focused on connecting people and ideas from around the world. It has been described as an "arts and educational organization that connects musicians, composers, artists and audiences around the world" and "an initiative to promote multicultural artistic collaboration." In July 2020, Rhiannon Giddens took over from Yo-Yo Ma as Artistic Director.

Il progetto si ispira alla tradizione culturale che si poteva incontrare lungo la antica via della seta. La sperimentazione culturale e musicale avviene tramite un'orchestra appositamente allestita, la Silk Road Ensemble.
