A private interest opened to the city
The puzzle moved from a personal activity into a gallery setting where visitors could understand the task and contribute a few pieces.

24,000-Piece Puzzle
Two-week public event at Aban Art Gallery in Mashhad where a fourteen-person core team and gallery visitors assembled one 24,000-piece puzzle for a charity auction.
Stage
One puzzle became a public event.
A two-week event at Aban Art Gallery brought a fourteen-person core team and gallery visitors around one 24,000-piece puzzle, which was completed and auctioned for Hamdam Charity.
A fourteen-person core team
A fixed group kept the work moving across the two weeks while public participation remained open and informal.
A physical scale people could feel
At 1.57 by 4.28 meters, the puzzle required a large working surface, careful transport, and a plan for framing the completed image.
The result supported Hamdam Charity
The auction raised the equivalent of EUR 7,500, covering one month of operating costs for work supporting approximately 400 girls without parental care.
Backstage
I had to organize more than the puzzle.
I initiated the event, formed the team, arranged the gallery and charity relationship, coordinated public participation, and handled the path from assembly to auction.
I turned one table into an open invitation
The activity was simple enough for a visitor to join without training, but the fixed team gave the two-week process continuity.
I coordinated different kinds of support
The gallery, core team, charity, potential buyers, transport, and framing all needed different conversations and timing.
I kept the task visible
The growing image showed progress immediately and made it easier for people to understand how a small contribution joined a much larger effort.
The auction gave the work a clear ending
Completing the puzzle was not the final step. It still had to be framed, moved, presented, and connected to a concrete fundraising result.
