The Inmate Creativity Exhibition 2015 organised by Maldives Correctional Service (MCS) has successfully concluded.
The exhibition was organised to showcase the talent, produce and crafts of inmates and the public praised the inmates for their talent and the crafts they created.
Corporal Abdulla Ameen from the organising committee of the Inmate Creativity Exhibition said that 95 per cent of the items were sold at the Exhibition itself. He also said that some patrons had complained when their preferred items were sold out and therefore more focus will be given to increase the crafts more in demand.
Corporal Abdulla Ameen further said that the Exhibition received a very good response from the public with more than 3500 visitors.
“This is a great progress,” said Corporal Abdulla Ameen.
This year’s Exhibition also included a lucky draw competition where a winner was chosen for each day of the Exhibition. Three winners were chosen for the three days the Exhibition was held; their prizes being a return ticket to Colombo sponsored by Short Throw Maldives, DPRS Cooperative Society and Turkish Airlines.
The Exhibition was held from 16th April 2015 to 18th April 2015 at the National Art Gallery.
A sincere vote of thanks is given to all those who contributed to making the Exhibition a success.
The patrons who bought items but did not collect them by the end of the Exhibition are requested to visit Maldives Correctional Service at Ghazee Building to collect the items.
