Navras Art Academy

Over in Dadar West, at Chitra B 3 in the Amrut Kumbh Society, you’ll find us at Navras Art Academy. It’s a bit of a walk from the station, but it’s a nice enough area. We’ve got this space where we do all our art stuff. It’s usually a bit messy because that’s just how it goes when you’re working with paints and materials. We don’t try to keep it perfectly clean because that’s not real life. The society is quiet enough, which helps when you’re trying to focus. We started this because we liked art, and we just kept going with it. There aren’t any big speeches here about how great we are. We just open the door and let people do their work. Some days we have a lot of students, and other days it’s just a few of us. We don’t have a big marketing budget, so most people find out about us from their friends. Dadar is always busy, but once you step into Chitra B 3, it feels a bit different. We use simple tables and chairs. Nothing expensive. We think the work is more important than how the room looks. If you want to see what we do, you just have to come by. We’re usually there during the day, just doing what we do. It’s a simple setup that has worked for us for a long time now. We don't need much more than our supplies and some space to create.
