Nevember-December
2009 To extend D.Ed Teachers training programme in North Karnataka, we selected Gulbarga Government Teachers Training College for women and conducted 30 days art training camp. Gulbarga is backward area. Good rapport of Gombemane with some of art loving community and art groups in Gulbarga has encouraged and enabled us to organize a successful workshop in Gulbarga. The Gulbarga has produced nearly 10 Theatre graduates. As a result of this, few of them worked with us as resource persons. The workshop was also organized in Gulbarga to trained theatre workers of Gulbarga to establish themselves locally. So that, in future they too think of organizing teachers training programs independently.
Participants :- 100 Trainee teachers.
Short term Workshop - We organised puppetry and storytelling workshops in Chalamatti and managundi school. They don’t have basic exposure to creative art. We identify that these village children are more exposed to TV culture. They even do not properly identify basic colors and shapes. The 3 days Puppetry workshops gave basic inputs to develop their skills. They could draw their own sketches and identify proper colors and could narrate the stories.

We organized short term puppetry workshop in Rural Home Science College for Women Agriculture University Dharwad second time as a follow up activity. It is a part of their “Development of educational materials for early childhood educational for children with normal and special needs”. Dharwad Agri- University Home Science Department likes to introduce learning puppetry skill as one of their subject in the syllabus. The home science students are also working with children. They have to develop educational material for early childhood education for children with normal and special needs. Our workshop in puppetry gives an ample scope to them to learn more skilled activities considering the puppetry as one of the subject in their syllabus. This is a positive development in art education.
