Time to know the art and cultivate the aesthetic sense..

 An unforgettable Art and Aesthetic visit

Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time. Art is not what you see, but what you make others see. 

It was our first Field trip with MTTC Family to Guru Gopinath Natanagramam. 



We started our journey in two buses, at 9.45 am with Principal's valuable message and a beautiful prayer.We went by bus, and Ancy maam, Maya maam, Joju sir was along with us. The bus journey interesting . We made it immemorable by singing songs, enjoying snacks and chit chat with friends. Journey with friends is always enjoying and interesting. 

The Guru Gopinath Natanagramam (the Guru Gopinath Dance Village) is an institute for art established in 1995 to keep alive the memory of Guru Gopinath. Founded in the name of the great artist, Guru Gopinath, the objective is to bring music, dance and instrumental music under one roof and provide the best training.

We reached there 10.40am and, we are welcomed by welcome drinks, and the outer view was awesome.

We all entered the museum with great enthusiasm and excitement. Then we visited each cabin with the guidance of the staff there..

We explored the museum with big eyes. We realized the real story of Kerala art forms- Kathakali, Theyam, Mohiniyattam, Kerala Nadanam a lot of unfamiliarized art forms also.
