A Vibrant Success at Kamal Pokhari

On December 2, 2023, we came together to celebrate the power of art, community, and change at the highly anticipated Color Feast – Brush for a Change event. Hosted at the serene Kamal Pokhari, this art exhibition and interactive event brought together artists, activists, and compassionate individuals who share a vision of a brighter tomorrow.

A Day of Color, Creativity, and Community

The event, supported by ABCD Entertainment, Group Of Newa & Sherpa’s Pvt Ltd, Karma Residences, Momo Karma, Mountain Children Home, Mingma Foundation, and Into the Himalayas, was a beautiful blend of art and activism. Attendees were treated to mesmerizing artworks that depicted themes of hope, resilience, and community empowerment. The energy of the event was contagious, as artists from all walks of life joined hands (literally and figuratively!) to paint a better future.

Workshops, artist talks, and interactive sessions kept the creative spirit alive throughout the day, engaging the audience through insightful conversations about the role of art in social change. Karma Tenzing (Senior Advisor) was joined by key figures such as Dawa Sherpa, Sajan Shrestha , Bishal Chamjong, Monaj Lama, Nishan Gauchan, and Aayush Prakash Dhar, each of whom contributed their unique expertise and passion to the event.

A United Effort for Positive Change

The success of this event is a testament to the strength of collaboration. Local community organizations, sponsors, and artists came together, not just through their art, but through their unified mission to create a lasting impact. The Color Feast was not just about the art on display, but also about the deep connections made between individuals and organizations committed to change.

Workshops, artist talks, and collaborations were facilitated through social media group chats, creating a virtual space where discussions flourished long after the event ended.
