With the spark of igniting young minds and creating an intense connection of creativity, curiosity and excitement in its pupil and abundant overflowing ideas emerging, this event has so far been able to manifest its ideologies in the school curriculum.
AIM
Virtual Art Exhibition, intends to hansel the virtues of rich cultural heritage of our country among our students. The event aims to absorb the idea that cultural heritage belongs to everybody, and digital cultural heritage, even more so. A large number of museums, libraries and archives have published openly licensed, high-quality images (art, photographs, prints, etc) online and we at Bal Bhavan feels immense pride to have also initiated the same practice.
This annual event aims at raising awareness of the importance of heritage preservation for sustainable development under the annual theme "Shared Cultures, Shared Heritage and Shared Responsibility" of the International Day for Monuments and Sites, known as the World Heritage Day.
We also believe in promoting research-based study followed by a pragmatic approach of application-based ideas, ideas that can take shape on the ground and make a difference.
VISION
Virtual Art Exhibition, themed on the Heritage Day is an opportunity for all Bal Bhavanites to illustrate a good practice in heritage preservation by maximizing the benefits from safeguarding our tangible and intangible heritage and knowing about the magnificent past and ethnicities of India that will certainly fill their hearts with patriotism.
The students from Classes Nur to XII will collaborate to raise awareness of the importance of heritage preservation for sustainable development under the annual theme- PAINT MY INDIA@2047, ON MY CANVAS” by using their creativity and imagination. The paintings will be students’ virtual representation of the art forms in Indian Folk Art style or fusion of one or more folk art styles like Gond, Warli, Madhubani, Kalamkari or any other Indian folk-art style. Hence, it will be evaluated through a virtual exposition by experts in the files.
