National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi for the first time will organise “Spring Fiesta” 2023, to celebrate 69 years of the museum which was officially inaugurated on March 29, 1954 by Vice President Dr. S Radhakrishnan.
More than 50 stalls will be set up for display and sales at the museum lawns by enthusiastic participants from different walks of life who specialise in items such as handicrafts, ceramics, indigenous art, fashion, and so on.
The fiesta is the first of its kind and the audience will be captivated by a variety of creative products accessible for purchase at nominal prices. To tickle the taste buds, food stalls will also be available. A sketching and painting session has also been planned to engage visitors and give them the opportunity to display their artistic ability on canvas. To mix things up, a 3-D mapping projection on the art treasures will be projected before the event concludes. Musical and performance by traditional and contemporary artists is also one of the highlights of the event. The event will conclude with a 3D projection showcasing the art treasures.
This will serve as a platform for individuals to showcase their work while also raising exposure and generating interest in locally made, handcrafted, and curated products. The education and research department of NGMA is constantly working on ideas and projects in order to provide an interactive experience for the visitors so that they can connect more with the museum. NGMA seeks to create more memories of the people with the museum through its engaging and inclusive programmes.
