ge, Ankita is a management development graduate from IIM Lucknow and also carries a diploma in Arts and Crafts from Lalit Kala Academy. She also holds the position of the Chairman, Arts & Crafts promotion Committee of UPHRA and was awarded the Emerging Young Women Entrepreneur by UPHRA. Other than that, Ankita is armed with more than 11 years of experience in the hospitality sector and is currently the director of Ramada Plaza, Lucknow Hotel and Convention Center, where the beautiful Brio Art House is nestled in a walk-in gallery. Taking her inspiration from life, she is working towards the promotions of skill development, while expressing emotions through art! Her love for charcoal and pastels is self evident and she likes to use integrating and repurposing varied materials in her art work to create sculptures and more. Photography is another medium that has allowed her to share her point of view towards nature and its creations, to put across how she perceives different things around her! In Ankita's words, "Brio Art House & Cafe is a special place where you can enjoy art in its varied forms and also relive the lost, cultural heritage of Uttar Pradesh through the work of art and craft as displayed on the walls of the gallery. I believe in empowering local artisans by reviving and recreating different types of art.
