As a company
that celebrates music, poetry, crafts and dance, we are delighted to announce that our one day mela event, LOK VIRSA: Beyond Borders, will be returning to Birmingham at the Library of Birmingham this summer!
On Saturday the 26th of August, from 11-4:30pm, we will be celebrating South Asian arts and culture, going 'beyond borders' and reminding audiences of unity despite modern borders and political differences.
This event is very
close to our hearts, as inspirational artists from the Indian
sub-continent ,will be sharing their love and passion for art forms such as Dance,
Arabic Calligraphy, Mehndi, Rangoli and Block Printing! Its set to be an
engaging,inclusive day for all of the family, with a variety of engaging
workshops, and exciting Indian traditions activities.
You could find
yourself unleashing your artistic and creative side, with a Ajrakh
inspired block printing activity, that will not only excite but educate you in
the fascinating history and culture of South Asia.
Or simply being memorized by
watching the fast paced and energetic traditional folk dances from the
subcontinent!
With not
long to go, we encourage you to come and re-discover the roots and ideas behind
South Asian music, dance and visual arts, at LOK ViRSA!
