Selimpur Basti

Even we have a good idea every now and then. We thought it would be fun to do a mini project with some Kolkata kids. In preparation, we went looking for a suitable place where we can organize a creative workshop for kids.
We already met the kids from the slums at Kalikapur road in Selimpur. Some of them recognized ma'am Shu and were pleasantly surprised to see her again.
This place goes to our hearts. So we decided that we will come back here next Saturday with a mountain of coloring books and pencils to work with these kids, trying to do some coloring within the lines. We already gave them our business card so they can order their crayons by calling us.
In the mean time Ed tiptoed between the kids taking pictures. Of course that did not go unnoticed. Within no time Ed was almost buried under a swarm of screaming potential models.
By way of distraction Shu took some group portraits, so Ed could catch the kids one-on-one on a roll film. It was fun, and we're looking forward to Saturday!
