Art For All Global is a social initiative I founded in India to provide access to the arts for all groups of people, especially in a landscape where pursuing art is often seen as risky. The initiative highlights the importance of fostering creativity from a young age and its therapeutic benefits, particularly during challenging times. Launched during the pandemic, the project grew to a team of 12 passionate individuals across the country, offering free courses, workshops, and raising awareness about the power of creativity.
The brand’s logo, my first-ever design created in the 9th grade, is a watercolor globe that symbolizes the initiative’s global outlook and artistic spirit. I crafted the branding to embody a fun, youthful, and artistic identity, aligning with our mission to make creativity accessible to everyone.
Teach for India
Our biggest project was a two-month-long weekly art workshop in partnership with renown edu NGO Teach For India for underprivileged children in the slums of Mumbai during the COVID-19 pandemic. This effort provided not just artistic education but also emotional support during a particularly challenging time.
Sana Musica
Art for All partnered with Sana Musica to raise awareness about how music in particular ties in with mental health. It focused on building self expression across ages, emphasis the strength of the bond between humankind and music.
‘Taare Zameen Par’
This was a Children’s Day crafting workshop conducted in partnership with Ladies Circle 1 and Coimbatore Round Table 9 at the Aranyakam Children’s Orphanage. Truly the most fulfilling and enriching session conducted, certain to be cherished forever.
