On a sunny Saturday afternoon, a group of kids in the age group of eight to 13 pose a barrage of questions to education officer Bilwa Kulkarni about the Townley Discobolus sculpture. The piece is an example selected for a workshop on writing the labels for the first exhibition at the children's museum Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya (CSMVS). The exhibition is likely to open in October.
On July 12, mid-day had first reported about Mumbai's first children's museum, a project for children by children, supported by Bank of America. The bright young minds at the workshop are among the 25 young curators selected from 240 entries for an art competition and 178 for an essay competition conducted. 10 of them form the animation team being trained by Toon Club, a city-based company that specialises in getting children involved in animation.
