Looking for something to do this weekend in Ahmedabad? The city’s vibrant arts scene offers a unique mix of exhibitions and events that cater to various tastes. Whether you’re an art lover or just looking to support a good cause, there are options for everyone.
Art for a Cause
This weekend, Prism opens its doors at Hutheesing Visual Art Centre. Organized by the Rotary Club Ahmedabad Metro, this exhibition features the work of 29 artists and showcases over 120 pieces. Club president Parimal Vasavada explained that Prism aims to blend art with community service, allowing visitors to engage with artists while also supporting important outreach programs.
The event runs until Sunday from 4 pm to 8 pm. Admission is free for all who wish to attend. It’s an excellent opportunity not just to appreciate art but also contribute towards meaningful initiatives.
A Journey Through Design
If you’re interested in design history, don’t miss the ongoing retrospective at Urmila Art Gallery. This exhibition highlights nearly 40 years of work by renowned designer and photographer Mohnalal Patel. His extensive journey in commercial design began after he delved into photography in the mid-1980s.
From his early days capturing images to his current role as a photography mentor, Patel’s career encompasses many facets of creativity. The gallery is open until Sunday from 4 pm to 8 pm and welcomes all visitors without charge.
Exploring Sanskrit Through Art
An intriguing solo exhibition titled The Script Within is currently on display at Kalavithika Art Gallery. Artist Chunchun combines Sanskrit script with abstract elements, using color and mark-making techniques that invite viewers into her emotional world.
The works feature layers of texture where words transform into visual forms filled with memory and energy—each piece begs the question: How does script influence our perception? Open until tomorrow from 4 pm to 7 pm, this exhibit also has no entry fee.
