SUMMARY:Poetry Workshop - The gift of the written word
DESCRIPTION:The philosopher Gaston Bachelard tells us\, “The words of the world want to make sentences\,” so we may further ask the questions- “And what do the sentences want to make? What do our sentences want to make? Do they want to make essays? Do they want to make stories? Do they want to run away and become poems perhaps? \nThe gift of the written word is open to all poets and lovers of poetry ages 15 and up. This workshop is designed to encourage questions and to seek a conversation with poets\, their poems\, images and ideas as a means to unlocking our literary talent. This workshop is about finding voice and wings for the sentences that want to run away and become poems. There is tremendous talent within each and every one of us. This workshop will put us in\ntouch with all the literary genius in our midst. \nWe will write poems and possibly\, stories\, essays\, plays or begin work on novels and maybe even epics\, if our lines run away and ask to take those forms. We will read and critique works of world literature\, seek dialog with authors great and small and find inspiration in their lives and works to unlock our hidden talents. We will close the workshop with gift giving. We will hold an open mic and gallery walk at the end of the workshop to share and display the fruits of our labor and give away our precious gifts of the written word to the world through a celebration of voice\, vision and imagination. \nMukta Sambrani\nBiography\nMukta has earned an MFA in Creative Writing from San Francisco State University.

SUMMARY:GYAAN ADAB PRESENTS THE STORY TOUR
DESCRIPTION:A shared experience of our past\, beyond boundaries\, beyond differences.\nAncient tales from around the world brought alive and retold in a solo performance for the people of Pune.\nby\nRANDHIR KHARE\nAward-winning poet\, folklorist & performer \nIn a divided world\, culture and the creative experience become important nurturing ways by which we can encourage a common sharing that transcends boundaries. Gyaan Adab’s Story Tour tries in an intimate way to rediscover our common heritage through folk tales\, myths and legends. The stories that will be retold on the tour are drawn from traditional communities from all over the world. Though they have emerged from diverse sources\, their similarities are often apparent. This is because they have essentially all come down to us from the depths of time where boundaries did not exist and our planet was a common space for the traffic of thoughts\, ideas\, feelings\, journeys and discoveries.\nThe stories have come from traditional communities belonging to far-flung places on our planet – the Native Americans\, the Incas\, Mayas\, Bushmen\, the great Norse travellers\, the shepherds of the lower Himalayas\, the Mullukurumba hunters\, the Bhils\, the Santhals\, the Muriyas\, the Mariyas\, the Gonds and a host of others – relived and shared in the language of today\, fresh\, vibrant\, excitingly new.\nAnd of course\, finally\, the purpose of The Story Tour is also to create a travelling space of entertainment that celebrates the magical art of storytelling.\nThe stories have been grouped into themes and each performance on the tour presents stories around one theme. The themes are: \nStories Of Creation on Saturday 19th July at GyaanAdab Centre @ 6.30 pm \nHeroes & Heroines on Saturday 26th July at The Loft @ 6.45 pm \nMagical Moments That Changed the World on Saturday 2nd August at The Culture Centre @ 7 pm \nWhen Good Triumphed on Saturday 9th August at British Council Library @ 5.30 pm \nEternal Love Stories on Sunday 10th August at Shisha Café @ 6.30 pm \nGreat Journeys on Saturday 23rd August at Pagdandi @ 4.30 pm \nEnds & Beginnings on Friday 29th August at GyaanAdab Centre @ 6.30 pm \nRandhir Khare has for the last four decades travelled extensively\, collecting stories and song-poems from traditional communities and has spent valuable time bringing them to us in a language that is vibrantly new and dramatic. He has published and performed these stories and song-poems and reached out to a wide audience\, captivating listeners by his stylistic flight of language and drama.\nHe has performed with traditional Indian musicians\, jazz bands\, an Iranian santoor player and the Chamber Singers and his lyrics have been set to music by A.R.Rahman.

SUMMARY:TWO OFFERINGS
DESCRIPTION:Two poets. Two artists. Two women. Two offerings.\nGyaan Adab brings you exceptional voices of two women who explore the same mediums with distinctly different ideas\, spaces and identities. The poets will offer their individual works in the form of art and poetry for the audience to engage in. \nAbout Christine Herzer\n“I have a pain. I have a pain in language. My lover\, language\, can be owned by anyone\, never takes a stand\, accepts everything. Language does not needlove me. I’m a poet. I’m not a beautifier. I’m interested in what must be claimed.”\nChristine Herzer is a poet\, visual artist and teacher. She received her MFA from Bennington College. In 2013\, she performed her poetry at the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival in Mumbai and her artworks were shown in Paris at La Cité Internationale des Arts\, Galerie Evi Gougenheim and the Galerie Ivana de Gavardie. Her writing appears in numerous international literary magazines such as Fence\, American Letters & Commentary\, and The New York Quarterly.\nShe will be reading work from her manuscript EXI[S]T A LANGUAGE.\nFor more information visit http://christineherzer.tumblr.com/ and http://poets.nyq.org/poet/christineherzer. \nAbout Dipalle Parmar\n“A leaf ‘Offering’ its vein-greened \n body to the ground –\n laying still until browned.”\nHaving travelled through the turbid waters of life with the oars of poetry and art Dipallé paddled to find meaning in the mystery of this world and the ‘other’. Learning to respect her gift of clairvoyance has been central to her journey of two decades. Poetry and stories visit her relentlessly and now are ready to be shared once again. Her art has been shown in India & Italy. Her first book “Not a Word is Heard” was published in 2010 and a book length Fable for children is soon to be released.

SUMMARY:So would you like to tell stories? - A Basic Story Telling course
DESCRIPTION:Dates: June 20 – July 12\, 2014\nDays: Fridays and Saturdays\nTimings: 4 pm to 6 pm\nFees: Rs. 2500/-\nAge: 18 + \nFor some people it’s part of their job; as teachers\, parents\, librarians\, healers or in business; but many people want to tell stories simply because they love them and feel compelled to tell them. Whatever the reason\, as soon as you say\, ‘Once upon a time … you step into a long tradition of storytellers. \nStorytelling is social art that begins with a conversation between you and the story. Just like any good conversation\, you need to be interested who you’re talking to\, and you don’t always know what you’re going to say next or how your listener will respond! \nWhether you’ve told many stories before and want to work on your skills\, or whether you’re hoping to tell your first story soon\, in this course\, we’re going to go through a process which will help you\, through a sequence of inner discovery and outward engagement to understand and practice different aspects of storytelling which will help you with any story you would want to tell. \nAs the storyteller Mary-Sue Siegel once said\, “Storytelling is like growing up in public.” Storytellers constantly bare their souls. The listeners too sense how much inner work has preceded the telling. It becomes a measure of how deeply the storyteller has engaged with a story\, and\, equally\, with life. In this way\, who you are is writ large in the stories you choose to tell and how you choose to tell them. \nThe course will be conducted by city based storyteller Peter Viegas
