themes/subjects:

1) "My favorite Indian festival..."
2) "My favorite Indian God..."
3) "An Indian Village scene"
4) "An Indian monument or place of interest"
5) "A scene from Indian mythology or history"

3. We will provide a sketch/drawing paper of about
11x14 and some pencils.
4. You have to bring your own supply of color
pencils/crayons/ water color/oil pastels etc.
5. The kids will be given 60 minutes to complete their
