Holi Art Gallery Opens its Doors for Artists- Rising Nepal Coverage

It was an important milestone to open and own an art gallery in the heart of Kathmandu.

Art workshop at remote villages in Palpa, Nepal and exhibition at Holi Art Gallery

I organized a team of art students to visit a remote village named Ringniraha in Palpa, Nepal. The schools there did not have an arts & crafts class.
All the students were thrilled to play with color crayons. The topic for the day was - My Village.
The children were free to draw,sketch.
After the 2 day program we collected their paintings and brought them to exhibit at Holi Art Gallery.
The program was inaugurated by Unicef Artist Sarad Ranjit & Japanese Embassy Secretary Mr. Sasai.
Art teachers are still in big demand in Nepal.

Astha with her Dad, Artha Ratna Tuladhar- At Gallery Nine

I was back in my birthplace, Kathmandu,Nepal after almost a decade and was amazed to see the art scene flourish. I visited Gallery Nine then located at Lazimpat with my father. The ongoing exhibition was about the national animal of Nepal, which is the Holy Cow!
There were journalists there and we ended up in the newspaper the next morning as visitors at the gallery!
