The Padav Art Mentoring Program 2024 (Cohort 2), organized by the Bangani Art Foundation in collaboration with the Kaaya Learning Centre, took place from June 5th to 10th, 2024, at the Kaaya Learning Centre in Dehradun.
Applications for this esteemed program were submitted in April, and a panel of five jurors selected twenty fellows to participate. Under the expert guidance of mentors Jagmohan Bangani and Punam Sharma, the fellows engaged in the creation of their artworks.
The program featured a compelling slide presentation showcasing the artistic journeys of several distinguished artists, including Akarshan Bora, Sugam Gaur, and Aakash, all emerging talents from Uttarakhand. Culminating in an exhibition, the event displayed the impressive works produced during the mentoring program. This exhibition attracted numerous art connoisseurs who praised the fellows' creative accomplishments.
The program provided an enriching and memorable experience for all involved.
