"Strokes & Swirls" - An exhibition of artworks created by the children of Ekadaksha Learning Center happened on 30th of March 2025 at Geetham Banquet Hall,Chennai.
Art is a powerful and transformative tool for special needs children. It offers a path to self-discovery, emotional well-being, and enhanced communication skills.Through art, these children can break down barriers, build confidence, and unlock their incredible potential. Every stroke of the paintbrush, every swirl of colour, and every art they create represents a step toward a brighter and more fulfilling future.
Art can enhance motor skills, improve focus, and provide a non-verbal way to communicate emotions. Children can communicate their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a non-verbal manner.Engaging in creative activities can be highly motivating for special needs children. It provides them with a sense of accomplishment and pride, boosting their self-esteem and encouraging them to continue exploring their creative talents.
Art not only helps special needs children; it empowers them to thrive.It takes extra planning, flexibility and creativity to make the arts accessible to our children.
