For a unique Bengaluru community, art is more than just an outlet—it’s a way to connect. Krishna Khurana, who hosts fortnightly art gatherings, believes art helps people communicate when words fail.
“We wanted to create a space for socialising through art. Many hesitate to attend workshops, thinking they aren’t good enough. So, we call it a ‘bad drawing party’—where the goal isn’t to be good, but to express yourself,” Krishna shares.
The meet-ups are kept small, with 10-15 participants divided into groups. Each group receives drawing sheets and prompts like, “What’s the first thing you do when you wake up?” Participants then guess each other’s sketches, sparking conversations.
Muskan, a business analyst, joined to step out of her comfort zone. “I wasn’t a social person, but I made amazing friends here,” she says.
For Bengalureans seeking a break from their hectic work life, these sessions provide relaxation and genuine connections. “Art is therapy,” Krishna adds.
