Graffiti – The name says it all!!

The countdown finally ended! The most awaiting event of the year, Graffiti ’18 marked its presence in SIC. It has been a tradition here, at SCIT, to celebrate Graffiti as our own festival and dedicate ourselves to the fullest for making it mightier, every other time.

The 2-day event was packed with fascinating competitions, gripping celebrity performances and obviously, the food joints among may other amazing stalls.

Graffiti was inaugurated on 19th of January, with a soothing acoustic night, which was followed by a cake cutting ceremony. The flash mob was an icing on the cake. The morning of 20th January witnessed the grand opening ceremony by our title sponsors – Nirman Group, Co-Sponsors – Lollapalooza and Airtel, Direct

or, faculty coordinators and the student Main Coordinators. The spirit and charm of Graffiti ’18 was felt everywhere on the campus. All thanks to the dexterous Graffiti team. There were long queues of participants at the registration desks.

For the first day, the events which were lined up were G-MUN, Synergence, Nautanki Shala, Q’vidence, Aignet

us, Bizolution and LAN Wars. All these events were one of their kind and they tested the participants thoroughly for their techo-manegerial skills. The tiring and fulfilling day had more in its store. The evening was ornated with the scintillating performance by the band, ‘The 5th Veda’ and DJ Eclair. The campus throbbed with the

 beats of music and danced along.

A musical evening awaited the students on the second day as well. SCIT’s pride, the college band rocked the stage. The stage also witnessed the naming ceremony of the band, as ‘Konnect’! Following Konnect, the band ‘Folk Story’ captivated the audience with their amazing performance. The band took away hearts of many by humming the favorite tunes of the audience. The crowd was tranquillized with the soothing performance of the band. Despite being exhausted by the long 2-day efforts, the students grooved tirelessly to the tracks of DJ Spinz Brothers.

The student-driven culture in SCIT has always focused on holistic improvement of individuals. An invalu
