Kalabiradari is an association of artists residing in the extended suburban area of Mumbai known as Mira Bhayandar. This area, having a population of half a million people, is richly peppered with people from the art fraternity.
But, surprisingly, there is not even a theater available in the entire area. Nor does there exist a library, a watering hole or a cafeteria where people from this field can come together and discuss the art world. This basically deprives the area of any art related activity.
Whatever activity happens, happens within the confines of one's own house and on a personal level. Almost all effort is personal and more often than not, even the exhibition of the effort is held at a far off place.
Thus not only people who are engaged in art related activities are deprived of a appreciative audience, but the local residents are affected too, almost like outcasts that have no engagement with the world of art.
Therefore, I appeal to all the members of Kalabiradari to come together and work towards correcting this problem
