 g in 19th-century Kolkata during the colonial period\, this distinctive ar
 t form developed around the Kalighat Temple\, dedicated to Goddess Kali. T
 he paintings were traditionally created on patas (cloth or paper scrolls) 
 by artists known as Patuas. Located near the banks of the Hooghly River an
 d the popular Kalighat Temple\, the area attracted pilgrims\, locals\, and
  foreign visitors\, creating a thriving audience for these unique artworks
 .However\, with the growing popularity of printed reproductions in the ear
 ly 20th century\, traditional handmade Kalighat paintings gradually declin
 ed.The legacy of this expressive art form was later reinterpreted and cele
 brated by renowned Indian artist Jamini Roy\, who drew inspiration from Be
 ngal's folk traditions and brought a distinctive modern interpretation to

DESCRIPTION:Step into the vibrant world of Kalighat Painting\, one of Beng
 al's most distinctive folk-art traditions\, in an immersive workshop.\nThi
 s workshop goes beyond simply creating a painting. It is an opportunity to
  discover the story\, culture\, history\, and visual language behind Kali
 ghat art and understand how this traditional art form evolved with changi
 ng times.\nBeginning with the origins of Kalighat paintings in 19th-centu
 ry Kolkata\, the workshop explores the artistic community of Patuas\, the
  influence of the Kalighat Temple\, and the bustling world around it that 
 shaped this unique art tradition.\nParticipants will discover how Kalighat
  artists moved from depicting Hindu deities and mythological stories to 
 portraying everyday life\, contemporary society\, humour\, and social obse
 rvations. Through these works\, the paintings became a fascinating visual 
 record of Bengal's changing social landscape.\nA key part of the workshop 
 will be understanding the distinctive Kalighat visual language—its conf
 ident flowing lines\, bold contours\, expressive figures\, simplified form
 s\, and vibrant compositions. We will also explore how Bengal's folk tradi
 tions influenced modern Indian art\, particularly through the work of Jam
 ini Roy.\nThe session combines storytelling\, art appreciation\, visual r
 eferences\, demonstrations\, and hands-on practice\, allowing participants
  to first understand the tradition and then interpret it through their own
  artwork.\nParticipants will be guided through the process of creating a 
 Kalighat-inspired painting\, making the experience both educational and cr
 eative. No prior art experience is required—just curiosity and a willing
 ness to explore.\nWHAT YOU WILL EXPERIENCE\n\nThe fascinating history and
  evolution of Kalighat Painting\nStories behind its mythological\, social
 \, and everyday-life themes\nAn exploration of the Patuas and the Kaligha
 t tradition\nThe influence of Jamini Roy and Bengal's folk-art vocabulary
 \nUnderstanding of lines\, forms\, colours\, composition\, and expression
 \nA guided hands-on Kalighat-inspired painting session\nYour own complete
 d artwork to take home\n\nThrough Hues by Sindhoor\, this workshop aims t
 o make traditional Indian art experiential rather than simply instruction
 al—giving participants the opportunity to connect with a living artistic
  tradition through its stories\, forms\, and their own creative expression
 .\nCome discover Kalighat—not just as a style of painting\, but as a win
 dow into Bengal's history\, culture\, people\, and imagination.

DESCRIPTION:This is the book launch event for a novel by Debalina Haldar\, 
 a Sahitya Akademi-shortlisted novelist. This is her fourth novel\, “Kali
 mpong”.\nAbout the book\n1949\, Tibet. Five-year-old Pema and her insepa
 rable friend Dama spend their days chasing dreams through mountain village
 s\, studying at the local school\, and praying at the monastery. But when 
 conflict sweeps through Tibet\, their peaceful childhood is shattered. As 
 the political turmoil peaks\, a single act of betrayal changes the course 
 of their lives forever.\nYears later\, in the mist-laden mountain town of
  Kalimpong\, a woman begins searching for the story behind a bracelet engr
 aved with names she does not recognize. Drawn by an inexplicable connectio
 n\, she uncovers a forgotten story that stretches from the snowbound valle
 ys of Tibet to the refugee settlements of India—a story of enduring frie
 ndship\, sibling love\, impossible choices\, exile and belonging\, and of 
 mothers and daughters whose lives were shaped by history's upheavals.\nRic
 h with the landscapes of the Eastern Himalayas and infused with the enduri
 ng presence of clouds\, rivers\, and memory\, Kalimpong: The Ridge of Lost
  Names is a novel about the names history forgets and the love that rememb
 ers them.\nAbout the Author\nDebalina Haldar is an alumna of IIM Lucknow\,
  class of 2015. She started writing when she was seven years old. She writ
 es in the literary fiction genre. Her novel\, The Female Ward\, was publis
 hed in October 2012\, by Thames River Press (UK). Her second book\, Wrinkl
 es in Memory\, is a collection of 22 short stories. It was published in Au
 gust 2016 by Lifi Publications. Wrinkles in Memory was shortlisted for the
  Sahitya Akademi Yuva Puraskar for books in English in 2020. Her novel\, T
 he Daughters of Shantiniketan\, was published in August 2025 by Readomania
  Publishing. She is based in Bengaluru\, where she lives with her husband 
 and her two children.

DESCRIPTION:Ever wonder what is possible when we drop the small talk and co
 nnect for real?\n\nAuthentic Relating Games is a global practice of guided
 \, playful yet deep exercises (the 'games') designed to help people connec
 t more honestly and meaningfully — whether with close friends or complet
 e strangers.\n\nThrough structured partner and group conversations\, you w
 ill get to practice speaking from the heart\, deep listening\, and noticin
 g what's alive in you as you relate to others.  The games create space fo
 r more honesty\, curiosity\, and real human connection — often in ways t
 hat feel surprisingly fun\, refreshing\, and profoundly moving.\n\nWhat to
  Expect\n\n- A Structured Container:  We will start as a full group to se
 t some simple guidelines that ensure the space feels safe\, respectful\, a
 nd confidential.\n- Activities with Partners\, Trios\, and the Large Group
 : We'll keep changing partners throughout the session (no need to bring a 
 partner!).\n- Guided Prompts and Demos: We'll guide you step-by-step throu
 gh the games and provide live demonstrations so you know what to do.\n- To
 tal Autonomy: You are always in the driver's seat.  You choose how deeply
  you want to go\, or pass on a prompt or game at any time.\n- A New Set of
  Games: If you attended Authentic Relating Games previously\, don't worry 
 this won't be the same games but a different set of activities to explore!
 \n\nNo experience needed.  Come as you are.  If you've never done anythi
 ng like this before\, don't worry — it's simple and there is no pressur
 e to get it "right".\n\nAbout the facilitator:\nRoy Jacob is the founder o
 f the Conscious Communication Academy and has been facilitating workshops 
 and retreats for over 15 years\, mostly for changemakers as well as team r
 etreats for NGOs and companies.  Roy grew up in the U.S. before finding h
 is calling and coming to India (where his roots are) in 2003.  He believe
 s in the transformative power of combining radical honesty with radical ca
 re.
