An art competition organised under the Consoldiated Community Development initiative sparked creativity and promoted skill-building among over 200 students and youth from 11 villages.
Participants came together to showcase their talents and unique perspectives, making artworks on themes like saving water, environmental conservation, women empowerment, and imaginative expression.
The top three participants were awarded, and all participants received valuable feedback from judges. However, more than just a contest, the event promoted art as a tool for awareness and self-expression. It offered a platform for rural youth to see creativity as a strength – and even a potential source of livelihood.
It encouraged many to pursue art more consciously, proving that creativity holds the potential for both personal and social change.
