The idea that kindness is, indeed, a love language is more relevant now than ever. Some of us express affection by offering a helping hand when it's least expected. While others do so by slipping a favorite snack into someone's bag or making time to check in with a friend who's been feeling low. Even the smallest gesture, like sharing your last piece of chocolate or sending a "this made me think of you" text, can make someone feel truly seen.
This spirit of gentle compassion and community is the catalyst of the World Kindness Day event hosted by The Kindness Foundation at the Anna Centenary Library from November 3-5. Stepping into the space, visitors were immediately drawn to a lively display: an intricate art piece crafted by the community itself. Mounted on a pristine white backdrop and bordered by plush red velvet ropes, this sprawling artwork featured colorful hand shapes decorated in unique styles, from delicate black-and-white line work to bright splashes of color, hearts, and abstract designs.
This wasn't just a display but a celebration of individuality and diversity, embodying the power of collective creativity. Artist Vijayaraghavan S from Diana's Art Room contributed his unique vision to the event.
