SUMMARY:Rangoli Workshop with Vijaya Mohan
DESCRIPTION:About the Event: \nEven before the first rays of the sun are visible on the horizon\, at least 10 million Indian households sweep and clean their door entrances and draw picturesque and colourful designs called rangoli or kolam outside their houses. The word rangoli is derived from rangavalli – (rang meaning colours and valli meaning creepers) so Rangavalli means a row of colourful creepers. It is generally believed that rangoli/kolam are drawn to welcome Lakshmi the Goddess of Wealth into the house and also to ward off evil spirits. \n  \nThese designs evoke a sense of geometry\, creativity\, sensitivity and beauty and is considered as an important form of artistic expression. As an art form\, rangoli/kolam teaches one patience\, endurance and determination. It also enhances creativity\, concentration and confidence. \n  \nMs Vijaya Mohan will be conducting hands-on rangoli-making workshop as well as a share its history and significance from its origins to the practices here in Singapore.
