It was a magical night, with food, dance and much entertainment. The distinguished MC of the evening, Raj Kothari, announced and recognized on stage the talents of Autistic Artist Niam Jain. We often think Autistics are a burden on society, Niam showcased that Autistics can be contributing members of society.
Niam received a standing ovation. Niam stood up, and the crowd cheered even louder. It was a proud moment for Niam and his whole family.
It was a fun night with family. Niam loved the food and, was seen walking around with French Fries.
Niam’s painting was sold at an auction for a large sum of money.
It was a joyous and rewarding evening.
