VIRASAT’25- A vibrant celebration of India's rich cultural heritage, bringing together the colors, traditions, and flavors of our diverse history in one unforgettable event. The Indian culture-themed event organized by Strokes, the Fine Arts Society of SGTB Khalsa College, on February 21st, radiated joy with its vibrant and immersive activities. The event was graced by Principal Prof. S.K. Walia, under the guidance of Convenor Dr. Paramjeet Kaur, Officiating Convenor Dr. Ravinder Kaur, and President Atharva Singh Chauhan. Several competitions were organized as part of the Indian culture-themed event, including Mandala Mania, Open-Day Painting, and an Online Painting Competition.
VIRASAT captured the essence of various folk art forms, from different parts of India. Our first backdrop features a stunning Pichwai painting, with intricate depictions of a cow and peacock on either side, symbolizing nature's harmony and Indian artistry. The second backdrop showcases the grandeur of Hawa Mahal, with its iconic architecture beautifully complemented by vibrant, colorful windows, evoking the rich royal heritage of Rajasthan. At the heart of the event, our centerpiece, a majestic peacock proudly displayed, represents the essence of Indian culture, grace, and beauty. The most important part of our event, being the art exhibition was just a display of all the young artists of the society, showcasing their fine artistic skills. The live painting stall received an enthusiastic response, while the addition of handmade stalls and cultural games enriched the experience, allowing attendees to explore unique crafts and artistic expressions. The section has been allocated to the Punjabi Department for Firdaus, showcasing the work produced during the calligraphy workshop for Akhar. Lastly, the event concluded with the announcement of winners, who were awarded exciting prizes by our esteemed teachers.
VIRASAT’25 was not just an event, but an emotion that brought us back to our roots of heritage and culture.
