the exhibition...
"Chhotti Si Asha" had it's first exhibition on 13th April in sector 17 - market plaza - the same place where these kids beg or polish shoes. It was a street exhibition and the "chhotti si asha" gang loved it...there were journalist to cover the event and a lot of friends and strangers stopped by to support and admire the beautiful bags, files, pencil stands, jewellary etc that we had put together for the exhibition.
the best thing about the whole affair was the smile and pride on the face of the boys...they loved the fact that people liked their work and that it was actually selling. we made about Rs.8000 in about 2 hours and all the money was distributed amongst the boys depending on their work contribution. needless to say that our whole team is really pepped-up and wants to do more exhibitions and learn to make new things.
here are some pictures from that day...

Liza, this is awesome :)
Rs 8,000 in two hours is amazing.
I love the kids' work.
Liza it's so heartening to see how far you have come with these children. You are an inspiration for me!
