Differently abled artists to showcase their talent in the 'Flying Wings' festival

New Delhi, Jan 17 (UNI) Both differently abled and abled artists will be performing in the Flying Wings - an Integrated Dance and Music Festival which will be held on January 20 in the national capital.

The cultural festival, which will be held at Kamani Auditorium, will begin with an integrated dance performance by Kathak dancers and differently abled artists who will perform on wheelchairs, followed by soulful renditions of patriotic and bollywood songs by visually impaired singer.

Performing a dance routine on wheelchairs demand skills beyond the realms of mainstream artistry – the use of wheels in place of legs by the differently-abled has taken hours of hard work and innovative methodology.

The event is being organised by AAMAD Dance Centre, founded by Kathak exponent Rani Khanam to celebrate extraordinary performances by both abled and differently abled artists.

''This innovative performance is an effort to bring a ray of hope, dignity, equality and inclusion of disabled people in the society,'' organisers of the event said.
