The Kannur Revenue District School Art Festival kicked off at Thalassery, on December 6.
Inaugurating the festival, Speaker A.N. Shamseer emphasised the need for broader participation. He said school arts festivals should not be confined to students and teachers but should be made popular among the public.
He highlighted the love people had for arts and offered to discuss any technical challenges in transforming school arts festivals into a public event within the Assembly.
