EDITORS COMMENTS
Heading off in the procession. . . Khushi Ka Mela, a festival of Asian arts, captures the vibrant spirit and cultural diversity of Thornton Lodge. This print transports us back to 25th March 1991 when children from various schools eagerly participated in this grand celebration organized by Thornton Lodge Nursery School and members of Chol Theatre. The festival served as a platform for artistic expression, fostering creativity through workshops, storytelling sessions, theatre performances, and mesmerizing dances. With its roots deeply embedded within the local community, Khushi Ka Mela showcased Asian stories collected from residents themselves. In this enchanting image, we witness young girls adorned in colorful traditional attire proudly parading through the streets with their umbrellas held high. Their beaming smiles reflect pure joy and excitement as they embark on this unforgettable journey together. This snapshot encapsulates not only the essence of childhood innocence but also highlights the significance of cultural exchange and unity. The festival acted as a bridge between different communities, promoting understanding and appreciation for diverse art forms. Decades later, this cherished memory continues to inspire generations with its timeless message: that through art and shared experiences like Khushi Ka Mela, we can create lasting connections that transcend boundaries.
