Atulyakala helps deaf artists make a living

In 2013, when Smriti Nagpal went with her sister to an art exhibition, she met Amit Vardhan, a hearing impaired artist. Vardhan had graduated with a master’s degree in fine arts from the Delhi College of Arts and Commerce (DCAC). For 15 years he couldn’t find a job that matched his skills because of his disability. So he was working with an NGO, doing manual labour.

“He asked me for an alternative job where he could actually use his talent and the skills he had  learnt in art college,” recalls Nagpal.
