Sand art school in Balasore

April 11th, 2008

Following is an excerpt on this from a report in New Indian Express.

a group of artists from Balasore has embarked upon a mission to give sand art a fillip in this district.

"Our main aim is to make people more inclined towards sand art and create new artists and train them," said Kesudas, executive director of Baleswari Kala Kendra (BKK), a local organisation working for the development of ancient art form.

"There are number of artists in the district who want to show their talent in sand art. We have decided to give them scope so that they can excel," he added.

With this idea, a platform to showcase talents of local sand artists has been set up in front of the Gopabandhu park near Gandhismruti Bhavan and BKK School of Sand Art has been opened here.

"Local artists have been creating sand art works here daily and teaching other interested artists. Besides, 10 students who have taken admission in the school are being imparted training," said Kesudas.
