    Art challenge driven by AI celebrates Durga Puja

    South Madras Cultural Association (SMCA) Charitable Trust, in collaboration with HashHackCode (HHC), is introducing a first-of-its-kind event to this year’s Durga Puja celebrations: the Generative AI (GenAI) Kids Competition.

    Scheduled to be held on October 1, the competition invites children to create AI-generated images inspired by the vibrant spirit of Durga Puja, says a press release.

    This programme blends tradition with technology, giving children a unique opportunity to explore generative AI while celebrating their cultural heritage. Participants will transform their written prompts into stunning digital artwork, sparking creativity, building digital confidence, and developing future-ready skills. It shows how festivals can become platforms for creativity and learning, the release says.

    Families attending Navami festivities will witness how a community celebration can evolve into an inspiring space for technological exploration—offering children a glimpse of the future while honouring cherished traditions.

    SMCA Charitable Trust is a community organisation in Chennai dedicated to promoting art, culture and social welfare. Through year-round activities including music, dance, educational initiatives and charitable outreach — SMCA fosters community engagement and preserves cultural heritage while embracing modern, inclusive ideas.
