Bhavishya Yaan students attend an Art Workshop
Five Bhavishya Yaan students from GK Marg Municipal School, Parel attended a one day art workshop at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sanghralay’s (CSMVS) auditorium and visitor’s centre. The workshop was organized by CSMVS as part of our Art 360° series – a series of specialized workshops with renowned artists. These workshops are held on one Saturday every month.
The stencil making and printing workshop was conducted by the famous artist Mr. Vilas Shinde. The well known artist obtained his education in fine arts from Sir JJ School, Mumbai and M.S University, Baroda. He has also studied print making from Paris. We are thankful to artist, Mrs. Brinda Miller for giving Bhavishya Yaan children this opportunity to learn along with 30 other children and adults. She not only personally went to encourage the children and ensure that they are included but also organized lunch and juice for the children.
The children made their own designs and cut them from plastic and paper sheets. Thereafter, they placed them on a blank sheet at different angles. They then colored it with graphic ink using a roller. The artist appreciated the work of one of our students.
Coordinating Rotary Anne Ms. Ekta Shah ensured a good mix of children were present and understood the process. Bhavishya Yaan children got a fantastic exposure and learned a new technique to open their minds and explore the creative world.
