Hobby Exhibition

Tiruchirapalli Nagarathar Sangam
proudly initiates


About the Exhibition:
In our fast paced society, the busier you are, the more important it is to dedicate time to something that you enjoy and that allows you to be in control! Health professionals all over the world are recognising the benefits of hobbies and crafts and the positive impact they have on busy lives. In most facets of life someone else is dictating what needs to be done, when and how; but your hobby is something that is entirely controlled by yourself – you decide what you want to do, and how you want to go about it; the choice of colours is yours alone and there isn't someone breathing down your neck asking if it's done yet.  The satisfaction of doing something you enjoy simply because you enjoy it is immense – and it's good for you. That fulfilment enables you to be a better child,  better parent, a more productive worker, a less grouchy spouse or partner. When your own me-time needs are being met you will be less resentful of all the demands put on your time by life.

Hobby Exhibition will showcase a wide variety and extensive range of creative crafts and hobbies.  You'll find something to suit every taste.  Whether you're looking for ideas, fun stuff to do with friends and family, or special activities for your own 'me-time', you'll find it all at Hobby Exhibition.  

There will be loads of wonderful and fascinating ideas and hobbies.  We are sure that it will take hours for you to soak up the inspiration all around you.
So go on. Give in to the urge and ditch the guilt!
