" Get Artsy " Weekend Series : Sunday evening hands on sessions like digital print making, food typography and sensory art for kids grew in the pandemic and is an offshoot of AJ Consultancy. Along with the regular software education sessions the 40 mins workshops during the weekends are a healthy way to engage kids in something constructive and keep their minds of academics in the summer break.
With everything being online we have gone around the globe and reached out to kids from the remotest of towns. Our last workshop hit 65 kids out of which 30+ kids were from other parts of the world. We plan to continue these hands on and digital software education sessions.
While establishing her company, Aditi had to face numerous challenges, including advocating the importance of digital skills to staunch adherents of traditional curricula as well as changing people’s perception of design’s potential. Nonetheless for Aditi, it was a journey well-worth travelling. One of the greatest proof points is the rise in clients from non-creative backgrounds approaching her for help.
“We are in a globalised world and especially during these unstable times, technology is even more so a great resource. My aim for AJ Consultancy has always been to prepare young individuals to meet the challenges of the future,” she shared. “Digital skills and design thinking is thus a way for them to build sustainability into their careers.”
