She is also interested in art education and has held creative workshops for children in libraries, bookstores, museums, and schools. Armellini came to India, as part of a programme, the Villa Swagatham project, an Indo-French cultural residency programme, initiated by the French Embassy and French Institute in India. She spent time at Cashew Cottage, a farm house and artists’ residence, which hosted her, and at Tara Books’ bookcraft workshop.
