Special feature: N & G Art Gallery Presents....

Last Sunday was memorable. My whole Sunday was spent at the hall of Hua Lian's Old Boys' Association near Taiping Lake Garden. N & G Art Gallery which was run my my niece, had held an art exhibition, art competition, business fair, concert all rolled in one and the whole family had been there to lend support.

N & G Art Gallery seeks to teach children, teenagers as well as adults art. People get to learn to draw, paint, sketch and make handicraft there. My niece had begun teaching 3 students in 1998 in Pokok Assam and now teaches so many boisterous and talented children and youngsters who do not just draw and paint, but act, dance and sing as well! People, I suppose, have hidden talent and so many times, we just underestimate them!

Now that's a good way to tap some good talent. It's better we encourage such art by organizing events, exhibitions and other workshops, so that talent, even if hidden in deep corners, tends to flow out.

Great reportage, footiam! So interesting was to "partecipate"! Thanks for great work!

I do think so visor. The thing is some people push their children too hard towards academic excellence to the extent that children don't get to enjoy and express themselves.

Thanks Liudmila. Your artwork should be up for everyone to see too.
