A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE OF ORISSA ART AND CRAFTS:
An initiative was taken by XIMB Rural Management students in their annual festival “XPRESSIONS’ 09” to promote rural art and crafts. This was done as a part of their Social Entrepreneurship project. For visitors it was heartening and enjoyable experience as it had a variety of art and crafts which are typical to Orissa such as ethnic and tribal jewellery, Dhokra Brass Ware, Odisha Pata-chitra Painting, hand spun clothes from the KVC. As visitors from outside Orissa had also come down to be a part of Xpressions, they said it was nice to have a glimpse of “TRUE ORISSA” in campus. The organizing team see this as a successful effort as they could play a small part in others happiness.

I really appreciate the work you guys are doing. But is it right to restrain your ideas to a social issue?? Shouldn’t an entrepreneur have an open mind towards whatever comes their way??
