Avyukt Arts is an initiative by Warrier Foundation to promote Indian classical dance and music.Divya Warier, trustee of Warrier Foundation and a professionally trained classical dancer and performing artist herself, has always felt very passionately about promoting art amongst our youth and future generations.Thus began Avyukt Arts,an incubator for art lovers across the world to imbibe India’s sublime dance and music tradition and get a glimpse of their own divine essence.
Avyukt Arts carries out a multitude of activities under the banner of Warrier Foundation such as imparting of education of the art forms at all the Balamandirams, classical performances at various platforms and so on.
Our goal, through Avyukt Arts, is to provide regular art lessons to the kids at the Balamandiram. Ancient wisdom tells us that kids can pick an art form of their choice and channelise it to make their minds and actions more productive.
Outreach program through Music
The Balamandiramin Mumbai has been conducting Hindustani music classes for kids for more than a year now with the support of Rohit Warrier, a student in the United States of America, who sponsors this program through fees received from performing percussion (Mridangam) at various events, while juggling his academic commitments.In order for the program to be more successful, we have also introduced the following initiatives:
- Hire a mentor who can teach children various art forms
- Set up a regular schedule for everyone to get lessons
- Get extra funding to allow the lessons to progress into the future
- Older kids to help teach younger kids; “train the trainer” sessions
- Have recitals so they can showcase what they learned and enhance their presentation skills.
