Kalimpong to host natural history art exhibition by kids
EOI, KALIMPONG, 16 Jan 2015: The Himalayan Trust for Natural History and Art will hold a three-day exhibition cum sale in Kalimpong. The event will be hosted by Brindavan School from February 6 to 8 and will showcase natural history art/paintings, drawings, pottery and jewellery created by the kids of Relli Valley.
“Over the past four years, the children have gone through trying times in terms of honing up their creativity and skills,” said trainer Hemlata Pradhan, a renowned artist from Darjeeling. “Despite attending school regularly and carrying out chores such as tending cattle, cutting grass, collecting firewood, cooking and cleaning, the kids still found time for sharpening their creative skills. I give the entire credit to them.”
She added, “The pictures are for sale and 50 per cent of the proceeds will go for the welfare of the children of Relli Valley.”
