Children under 12 years of age were asked to paint and draw about ‘Swacch Bharat’, ‘Clean House’, and ‘Road Safety’. Using color pencils, crayons and water colors, children have drawn their imagination of how helmet rule has to be followed.
Keeping the surroundings clean, healthy home-healthy society, increase of green cover were few of the important subjectsthey had to follow. They came up with several ideas that depicted the themes in a sensible way.
They were appreciated for their vision. Advisor of Fine Arts, CCV, M Balamani said that they have embarked on this event to inculcate social responsibility among children. With arts, concepts can be easily demonstrated. The workshop not only aims at encouraging children to resort to art, but also tries to impart knowledge on our traditions, culture and literature, she added.
