Childhood is the most precious time when human beings grow intellectually, socially, culturally. However, in India, 134 million, in other words, every tenth Indian, is deprived of their own basic human rights. 

Aim 
“OCEANS OF JOY~to Celebrate Childhood” aims to encourage and empower children from various backgrounds who wish to learn the arts and execute their dreams on stage.This festival liberates many more children from distress and difficulties, gives them more confidence, self-respect and dignity. Secondly, it is to raise awareness about child labour, peace, child rights and environmental issues. They will pass on the values they will gain through a dance-theater production to the next generation.

Goal of the festival
To identify children with special potential and talent, whocould be led to the professional level in the future. The Bornfree Art School proposes to launch Bornfree Dance Academy (BFDA) on this occasion. The purposes of BFDA are 1. To train former and working children in the various dance styles from folk to Western. 2. Professional dancers will have a platform where they can impart dance knowledge to such children. 3. To use dance as a medium of therapy; dance movement therapy, professional dance movement therapists can come and work with BFDA, 4. To create child and youth performers who could raise awareness about social issues as well as entertain the public
Cultural Expressions
