Workshops for differently-abled at NGMA

Workshops in painting, pottery and music for differently-abled children will kickstart the 'Summer Carnival' at the National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA) here this month end.
"Art encompasses all domains of child development. To encourage this essence of art, we believe in encouraging children and adults with different abilities to view our art treasures which would form a rich repository of visual culture in their minds. It gives me extreme pleasure to organise this inclusive workshop with differently abled children," Rajeev Lochan, Director, NGMA said.
The workshops are being held in association with "My Whole Child Centre," a centre that caters to differently-abled children.

Artist Jagmohan Bangani is slated to conduct the painting workshop while Suchismita Mohanty is lined up for the pottery workshop and performing arts would be taken care by the centre
"Art is a good medium for expression, entertainment. Our centre provides a lot of therapeutic services to differently-abled children. In this festival we will be holding workshops on art based therapies which will include dance, drama, theatre," Moksha Nagdev Gudwani, Consultant and Child Psychologist at MWCC said.
The center is run by the Sunder Lal Jain Hospital and Trust.
