Indoindians community came together to support Saraswati Learning Centre with the ‘Indoindians Charity Art Auction & Exhibition’ at 1Park Avenue (21/04).
It was a really special day – Easter, Kartini Day and a room filled with kind and generous hearts who wanted to make a difference to the world around them.
The event featured 20 amazing artists who exhibited their artworks. They had each also created an unique buddy artwork with the children at SLC which were then put up for auction later during the day.
50 children participated in the on-site children’s painting competition on theme ‘kindness’. From our art exhibition to the children competition, love could be felt all over the room.
Indoindians Art Exhibition
The 20 artists presented their 4 best artworks for the exhibition. Arun Samak was our only photographer and Archana Agarwal showcased her ‘Go Green‘ artwork from recycled materials. The artists in an ode to Kartini, came dressed in their beautiful sarees.
It was the perfect place for artists to showcase their work, and talk about it.
Honored Guests Mrs & Mr KK Agarwal, H.E Rudrendra Tandon (Indian Ambassador to ASEAN), Ibu Dewi Motik, Stella Maris and Ayla also came to help support the cause. They were given a tour of the exhibition to view the paintings of the generous artists and came to know the stories of each of the paintings.
For your viewing pleasure, here are the artworks presented at the art exhibition:

The children painting competition had a lot of enthusiastic participation by almost 50 children of age group 6yrs to 16 yrs. Parents were seen supporting and encouraging their children. All in all, the event was an exciting one for both the children and the parents themselves.
Saraswati Learning Centre
The highlight of the event was the performances by the children of Saraswati Learning Centre. The entire audience were very inspired and touched by the performances of numerous songs by the differently abled children.
The other highlights included – founder of SLC Reshma Bhojwani was recognized as an awardee by World Woman Leading Change Indonesian.
Charity Art Auction
The art auction was ably conducted by founder of ISA Art Advisory, Deborah Iskandar as auctioneer of the day. She presented artists’ artwork to interested buyers in bids of months of sponsorship for underprivileged special needs children to attend SLC. It was full of positive energy and resulted in sponsorship of 18 children to attend school for 12 months.
The event was a particular success with many hands raised in support of SLC.
