Chandika Kishor, works with Women Empowerment programs in Rural India. She shared our gallery’s vision and mission with these women in her recent visit to Dahivadi village in Maan District of Maharashtra, India. These rural women empowerment program face the biggest challenge of inspiring these illiterate women who are juggling family, financial and social stigma issues; which results in many good program not getting expected outcomes.
Chandika says ” When I shared your story of starting this gallery, as mumprenuer with these rural women , they got very inspired and felt that they can juggle life priorities and win too!  This experience, made me realise that The Art and Craft Gallery’s Vision, Mission and journey should be spread to the regional areas, where it can inspire and show pathways to rural women and empower them in real sense.”

” मी मान तालुक्यातील दहीवडी या ठिकाणी मानदेशी महिला उद्योगिनी बँकेत गेले होते; तिथेही तुमच्याबद्दल महिलांना माहिती सांगितली त्यामुळे त्या महिलांचा कामाचा उत्साह अजून वाधला आहे.

तुम्ही जे काम तुमच्या gallery मार्गे करता, ह्याची माहिती मेट्रो city मधील लोकान पर्यंत पोचतंय ; तसेच ते ग्रामीण वर्गीय स्त्रियांकडे देखील पोचले पाहिजे, ज्याने करून त्यांना प्रोत्शाहन व मार्गदर्शन मिळेल”
