“Greatness of a nation is built upon the foundation of early education".

Let’s Start Art, by Shuruart Foundation (Not for profit, Section 8 Company), is a program to improve children's literacy skills through visual arts. We work with a selected set of Government Primary Schools in Varanasi, focusing on the foundational literacy of children through Arts-Integrated Learning. We aim at improving creativity, literacy, thinking capability, and imagination in the students, through ART.

Children studying in government primary schools are experiencing a learning gap. In Uttar Pradesh, education in government primary schools needs improvement and support. Through Let's Start Art sessions, we strive to provide quality education to students of government primary schools by making learning an enjoyable and engaging experience

Public Art

In previous academic sessions, children from five schools have created murals on their school premises under the supervision of our art instructors (Government Primary Schools at Bhadaini, Lahartara, Nagwa, Orderly Bazaar, Sonarpura, and Durgakund). The purpose of these murals is not only to inspire enthusiasm among children but also to enlighten them. It fosters respect for the school among the children.

While we work for the children from government primary schools, Let’s Start Art sessions also work as an employment opportunity for the art instructors who work with us part-time. In addition, these artists gain relevant experience with children, taking them a few steps closer to pursuing their careers as resourceful art teachers. The remuneration they receive for art sessions helps them self-finance their education and practice their art.
