I thought this event would be 1 more opportunity for me to teach art to the underprivileged children. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The organizing committee decided to divide this event into two sessions, on the two different days 1) 25th August \u00a0&amp; 2) 22nd September. The aim of first session was to introduce different arts tool and allowed them to make anything that they want to. In the second session we kept a competition in which we gave 3 topics and they need to choose 1 of them. I was surprised by looking at their drawings. I didn&#8217;t imagined that someone has talent to copy exactly the same drawing. We realised that underprivileged children are unable to afford resources due to poverty. Creating a platform to raise awareness about art, providing access and a medium for children to learn and explore helped us contribute positively towards issues of global significance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All the members of the organizing (also me) were surprised by their beautiful artwork and we decided to celebrate this creativity by distributing ice-creams. To be honest, even though I love being around children, I was not very confident of participating in this activity as initially. However, my parents taught me \u201cLife begins at the end of your comfort zone\u201d. I understood the importance of this quote when I found out my friends wanted my help with the logistics of the event. During these two sessions, I immersed myself into interacting with the children.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This sessions ended up teaching me more than I had expected. While talking to the children, I learnt the how to find joy in little and small things in life and not complain about their financial situation or living standard. I learnt to be grateful for the things that I have in my life. I am happy that I participated in this and took a new challenge head on. This event was conducted in a span of one month and if I had given up, I wouldn\u2019t be able to learn so much, realise the importance of working collaboratively and develop stronger team building and communication skills.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2300\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.35.15-300x263.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.35.15-300x263.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.35.15-768x674.png 768w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.35.15.png 892w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2299\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.36.09-300x243.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.36.09-300x243.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.36.09-768x622.png 768w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.36.09.png 842w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2298\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.40.24-300x219.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.40.24-300x219.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.40.24-768x560.png 768w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.40.24-1024x746.png 1024w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.40.24.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2297\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.41.38-215x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"215\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.41.38-215x300.png 215w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Screenshot-2019-02-01-at-13.41.38.png 542w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Art For Everyone was an event organized by three of my friends who wanted to promote\/bring out art in the rural area of our hometown and bring out creativity and hidden talent, \u00a0in underprivileged children.
