Craft Fest India - Creative Learning

So today's post is not about my new pottery creation or any particular creative thing I discovered recently...it is purely about a creative thought...the thought behind "CRAFT FEST INDIA".

I'm sure, most of you love visiting Craft Exhibition or Mela or Utsav where you get a chance to see or buy variety of handmade crafts and sometimes even wonder how the artist turn a simple thing into a beautiful object.

Now just think....how about a Mela where you can actually learn these art forms. Well, Craft Fest is like a mela where you can explore and learn different crafts from specialized artists and that too in couple of hours.

You can choose from a variety of crafts and learn the one you like most ranging from quilling, jewelry making, pottery, clay modelling, traditional painting and much more!! So everything under one roof...well craft fest is not a permanent roof. They travel within city, across city and across states just to provide the learning facilities within their reach.

The concept of craft festival is quite popular in western countries. Huge camps are organised and artists from across country are clubbed together at one place to teach different art and craft forms to children and adults. Craft Fest India would be one of the first such initiative in India. Their launch event will be at Centerstage Mall (Wave Mall), Sector-18, Noida on 18th October 2014.

Definitely, one of the reason for writing about Craft fest is that I'm excited to be part of their launch events. Secondly, i really liked this entire concept because as a child i always use to crave for a place where I just go, learn and come back...regular classes always bored me!! So this one place would be really interesting!! Currently they are doing it in Delhi NCR. but soon will be crossing borders to spread this love for craft. So do follow their page to know when the next camp will be organised in your city at https://www.facebook.com/craftfestindia

Happy Crafting :)
