We have crafted a number of programs after a long deliberation with major players in the cultural sector performing artists, choreographers, musicians, dancers, actors, writers, this program is designed to measure the level of comprehension, to solve equations , memorize things, and recall lessons; to measure the ability to maintain peace with others, keep to time, be responsible, be honest, respect boundaries, be humble, genuine and considerate and also to measure the ability to build a network of friends and maintain it over a long period of time
We have collaborated with local and international institutions to produce unique and bespoke products, while also facilitating various art events.
We want to ensure that art lovers, seekers, and producers have the best products to express their passion. We also encourage giving out various trainings and workshops encouraging capacity building.
Additionally, we serve as consultants in art development and content development for firms and individuals alike. We like to share our knowledge of art with our communities while also working with artists to generate attraction and high value for their products.
Through the well conducted and planned sequences of sessions the programs targets to stimulate societies in all the four major elements of human development namely:
1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ),
2) Emotional Quotient (EQ),
3) Social Quotient (SQ), and
4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)
It helps in coordination and if repeatedly continued it assists in mental stability. Groups can vary from 20 persons to 40 persons depending on age.
This well-crafted program with experienced performers and educators of art is a master piece that is enjoyed by communities of all ages, it is educative, informative and at the same time entertaining.
Each group is taken through intensive training of 45 minute and then another 45 minutes to transform their lessons into a short performance. This one-day training and performance lasts for 3 hours with a theme of “Culture in diversity”
