THE RANTHAMBHORE SCHOOL OF ART
The Ranthambhore School of Art located near Sawai Madhopur consists of painters from local villages. The main subjects of their paintings are the majestic tigers of Ranthambhore.
Ranthambhore School of Art was founded in 1987. It’s aim is to promote and support wild life and habitat conservation, bio diversity, sustainability and environmental education through arts that celebrates our natural heritage.
The Ranthambhore School recruits students from the surrounding villages and towns. The aim is to keep the beautiful image of the tiger alive in the minds of everyone; especially regarding the importance of this magnificent animal’s survival. The school also goes into villages and gives demonstrations and talks. They say the most encouraging factor is the response from young children. These children then obviously go back and influence the minds of those in their respective homes. They are also the future conservationists in the making.
The Ranthambhore School has been invited to hold exhibitions all over the world, and their contribution towards conservation has been recognised by NGOs and animal protection societies of Ranthambore and the country.
