The Desert rose – An Exhibition by our Patients and Families, in Trivandrum
Despite odds of nature, the desert rose blooms so beautiful! Come and see another kind of desert rose – an exhibition of creations by patients and their children. There will be paintings as well as other artistic products – most of them by young people who were bed-bound once, who are up on a wheel-chair now and creating these marvels.
The relevance: apart from treating pain and other symptoms and offering physical rehabilitation and psychological support to patients and families, Pallium India also embarks on vocational rehabilitation. Imagine the difference to self-respect it can make, when someone who considered oneself a burden for the family, now creates works of art and earns for the family!
We have more than 300 students now receiving educational support from us. In addition, wherever possible we empower patients and family members to earn for the family. We also teach the patients some vocation, so that they can earn for themselves. Many also rediscover their artistic talents.
Please visit the Desert Rose from the 26th to 30th of April, organized in co-operation with Alliance Française.
Date: 26 April to 30 April, 2014
Time: 9 AM to 4 PM
Venue: Alliance Française, Forest Office Lane, Vazhuthacaud, Trivandrum
Do please visit and encourage the artists and creators.
