St+art India Foundation and Asian Paints are proud to announce their inspiring collaboration aimed at empowering young girls through art in Jaisalmer. Central to this initiative is the Jaisalmer Gyaan Centre, a project dedicated to the education of girls and the empowerment of women in a region historically marked by a skewed gender ratio. Citta Education Foundation India plays a foundational role as the initiator of the project, specifically for the students of the Rajkumari Ratnavati Girls School.
In a unique blend of art and education, St+art India’s 10 participating artists breathed life into the Rajkumari Ratnavati Girls School, turning its classrooms into a radiant tapestry of dreams, aspirations, and stories. This school, already a haven for its students, shimmered with color and creativity, making it not just a place of learning but also an emblem of hope and resilience.
Giulia Ambrogi, Co-founder and lead curator St+art India Foundation says, “At the core of our initiative lies a profound belief: art transcends mere aesthetics, serving as a potent catalyst for change. We’re honored to join hands with all the like-minded partners that have built this unique and expansive dream project and being able to add a little contribution to it. As we infuse Rajkumari Ratnavati Girls School with colours of imagination, we aim at bridging creativity and education. Here, each classroom becomes more than a hub of academic pursuit — it evolves into a canvas from which our girls can draw lessons,
inspiration, and strength.”
Mr. Amit Syngle, MD & CEO, Asian Paints Ltd. says, “Our partnership with St+art India Foundation has always been rooted in the shared mission of infusing art into public spaces. We are pleased to collaborate with them once again for this remarkable project that will bring art to Rajkumari Ratnavati Girls School. Through diverse themes based on subjects taught in the school and Rajasthan’s culture, we wished to create an inspiring classroom environment that sparks imagination and encourages students to explore their full potential. These murals also pay homage to Rajasthan’s captivating stories and people, creating a sense of familiarity and belonging. Bringing joy to people’s lives is our core philosophy and we are driving the same with our initiative of #ArtForALL with St+art Foundation.”
