Here is an excerpt from  Explosive Fashion‘s Jasleen Duggal in conversation with Pearl Academy’s Nandita Abraham (Corporate Communication) on expectations from Creative Careers Conclave, which is scheduled to be held in Mumbai on Nov 24th.

One cannot teach someone to paint by telling them how to hold a brush.. one cannot teach someone how to be a fashion designer by just reading fashion bibles.. you have to let them taste the colors and the dreams. Practice makes perfect. Pearl Academy believes that in our journey of creative pursuits it is important to have interactions with seasoned industry experts who can guide, mentor and support budding creative minds.

Creative Careers Conclave aims to do just that. With this conclave we are looking at providing a teaser to our prospective students on how Life at Pearl which we believe would lead to a better future. Conclaves like these are a regular feature at Pearl Academy and our Mumbai campus which is being launched in 2014 will also follow the same. The panelists are gurus of the design and fashion world. We wanted young creative minds to interact, understand and continue being inspired to be The Next Big Thing in the field of the creativity with expert guidance.
