Indian art festival to take place in Abu Dhabi

Founder and CEO Anil Kejriwal said, “Indian art is being watched with respect and wonder by the rest of the world. The depth of Indian art has been a topic of research for many. It is because of the versatility that we bring into our creative domain. Our artists and their works are diverse in many ways but united in representing the true spirit of India. We are extremely proud that we are bringing in so many artworks and artists under one roof.”

The festival at the embassy will put on display children's best works from an inter-school competition that took place in June at Dunes International School, Abu Dhabi. Apart from artworks by Indian expats, the festival will also see artworks of artists from India. Their creations have been shipped to the UAE for the exhibition, which will be inaugurated at 10am on August 13. It is a free-to-attend event.

With over 50 artists taking part in the festival, visitors will have an artistic time where they can see live paintings, listen to different speakers, and attend art workshops for both adults and kids. Little ones will have their own event which will earn them medals and t-shirts as prizes for participation.
