Khirkee-ki-Khoj: Arts Education Program

The Khirkee mural executed in May 2005 was a success in more ways than one. Following its completion KHOJ was approached by the Principal of the Gyan Deep Public School, a small organization that is quite literally on the same street as the KHOJ Studios, inviting the artists who had painted the mural to take their art classes.

A group of artists took up the challenge of completely revamping the arts curriculum Aastha Chauhan, Sanjay Sharma, Ram Bali Chauhan, Rohini Devasher and Sonia Mehra Chawla took art classes twice a week every week for six months.
