The initiative aimed to make education more inclusive and inspiring by combining learning with creativity. Participating students engaged in hands-on workshops in sketching, watercolor, and oil painting, guided by eminent artists including Mr. Bhaskar Singha, Kangkan Barman, Gautam Partho Roy, Anoop Kumar Srivastava, Sanjeev Kumar Singh, and Santanu Sarkar.
One of the highlights of the camp was the exhibition of artworks created by the students, displayed on the final day. The paintings were later gifted to the participating schools as a symbol of creativity and collaboration.
On August 25th, the auditorium of Panchsheel Balak School hosted a Kathak workshop led by Ragini Maharaj, granddaughter of Padma Vibhushan Pandit Birju Maharaj, along with her troupe. Their captivating performance, which included an invocation on Lord Shiva and an energetic piece on Krishna’s Holi, enthralled an audience of nearly 1,000 students and teachers.
As part of its cultural education program, Routes 2 Roots also distributed musical instruments, including harmoniums, to the participating schools to enhance their involvement in the NGO’s nationwide digital learning classes.
The camp not only nurtured artistic expression but also encouraged critical thinking, aesthetic awareness, and cultural appreciation among students.
