We all associate memories with certain objects. We all have objects which are close to our hearts, which have been in our family for ages. Through the Art of History workshop on the 26th of May, Anchal will help you archive those memories. You can create your own story with the memory you have attached to the object. A unique workshop which sure to strike a chord in your heart.
There will be an exhibition of photographs of objects that have travelled through the partition, painting a vivid image of the time. A showcase of all the pictures used in her book and beyond. This exhibition will be on from the 26th of May until the 28th of May.
