New Delhi: Dipak Biswas, from West Bengal’s Birbhum, has been working as a craft wooden lacquer handicraftsman for over 30 years. But the Covid-19 restrictions have affected production massively, and the little that he manages to produce hardly gets sold.
Being the sole breadwinner in the family, Biswas has been worried over fulfilling their essential needs. Several artists and craftsmen like him have been battling the same situation.
To help such people, Society for the Promotion of Indian Classical Music And Culture Amongst Youth (SPIC MACAY) has started “Support the Artist” series. Through contribution, the voluntary organisation has already helped 18 artists from different parts of the country. Each of them has been given Rs 5,000 and SPIC MACAY hopes to reach out to 200 artists.
