The exhibition also includes commendable artworks by artists Lalitha Lajmi, Samir Mondal, Gurcharan Singh, Datta Bansode, Ramesh Gorjala, Babu Xavier, Nishant Dange, Jagganath Paul and more. "This is an excellent initiative.

Promoting art as you raise funds for a noble cause like the education of girls who want to study but cannot afford it, is great and I would encourage more people to take up such work," says Lila Poonawalla, the chief guest at the inauguration of the exhibition on February 15.

A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to the Lila Poonawalla Foundation. "I want to educate 200 girls while I am alive. I cannot go out and do it all by myself, so I thought, why not use my home for an art exhibition to help raise funds for a cause," says Bharati Malani, owner of Patch of Blue.


Till February 19, 11 am to 6 pmu00a0
At Patch of Blue, Survey no 61/1C/3/2/1, located before the Ghai bungalow in Mundhwa.
