About Govandi Arts Festival :
Govandi Arts Festival is a cultural movement that celebrates the spirit and resilience of the people of Govandi through performative and visual arts. It is a community-led arts festival rooted in creative expression to reclaim the narrative about their neighbourhood, which is much more than just a ‘ghetto’. It has emerged from the community choosing to connect, create and celebrate with the rest of Mumbai.

About The Kerala Museum:
The Kerala Museum is a vibrant beacon of the arts in Kochi. Set up in 1987, it is the brainchild of R Madhavan Nayar who, even then, recognised the need for a cultural institution which could provide experiential learning in history, the fine arts and performing arts in the city. He established a museum that concentrated on three sections: a history museum with dioramas narrating the complex history of Kerala, a visual art collection with key works by artists from the late 19th century to the late 20th century and a collection of dolls from around the country. Madhavan Nayar’s vision has been carried forward over four decades and the museum has hosted more than half a million visitors; it has also ignited the minds of school children from over 5000 schools from across the country. Amongst its other achievements, the museum’s collections have been digitised for free public access in partnership with Google Arts & Culture; and even during the pandemic, the museum remained active and presented a variety of online programmes.

About The Kerala Museum:
The Kerala Museum is a vibrant beacon of the arts in Kochi. Set up in 1987, it is the brainchild of R Madhavan Nayar who, even then, recognised the need for a cultural institution which could provide experiential learning in history, the fine arts and performing arts in the city. He established a museum that concentrated on three sections: a history museum with dioramas narrating the complex history of Kerala, a visual art collection with key works by artists from the late 19th century to the late 20th century and a collection of dolls from around the country. Madhavan Nayar’s vision has been carried forward over four decades and the museum has hosted more than half a million visitors; it has also ignited the minds of school children from over 5000 schools from across the country. Amongst its other achievements, the museum’s collections have been digitised for free public access in partnership with Google Arts & Culture; and even during the pandemic, the museum remained active and presented a variety of online programmes.

About Cinema Jamaat:
Cinema Jamaat Film Club came into existence when a few friends from Other Theatre decided to come together to watch world cinema collectively. This collective emphasizes the idea of experiencing films together, believing that shared viewings create deeper connections and understanding. We hold open screenings every alternate week, showcasing a diverse range of films from around the world. Recently, we celebrated a milestone with our 22nd screening, featuring a Mira Nair Retrospective film festival. This collective approach not only enriches our viewing experiences but also builds a community around a shared love for cinema.

About Cinema Jamaat :
Cinema Jamaat Film Club came into existence when a few friends from Other Theatre decided to come together to watch world cinema collectively. This collective emphasizes the idea of experiencing films together, believing that shared viewings create deeper connections and understanding. We hold open screenings every alternate week, showcasing a diverse range of films from around the world. Recently, we celebrated a milestone with our 22nd screening, featuring a Mira Nair Retrospective film festival. This collective approach not only enriches our viewing experiences but also builds a community around a shared love for cinema.
