Be part of an amazing and enriching performance and discussion showcasing the beauty of Hindustani Classical music with Caroline Rohm and Balázs Virágh. We invite you to a performance and discussion on the role and representation of female instrumentalists in classical Indian music by Caroline Rohm, U.S. Fulbright Research Scholar and Veena player, and Balázs Virágh, a Pakhawaj player.
Caroline Rohm is a current U.S. Fulbright Research Scholar, a Ph.D candidate in Ethnomusicology at the University of Texas at Austin, and student of dhrupad.

She received a DMA from the University of Maryland-College Park, where her dissertation explored the application of musical concepts and techniques of Indian classical music to the Western flute. She is developing an archive of recordings, interviews, and materials centered around women’s involvement in Hindustani classical music over the last thirty years.
Her performance is accompanied by Balázs Virágh, a prominent Pakhawaj player. Balázs began his Pakhawaj studies in 2016 under the guidance of Pandit Mohan Shyam Sharma. He is currently pursuing a Master's Degree in Pakhawaj at SNA Kathak Kendra.

While waiting for the turkey roasting in the oven for our Thanksgiving dinner, many of us watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on television or the internet. And millions forgo the comfort of their homes to get in on the excitement by lining the parade route along New York City streets. Read more about how the parade unites over 3.5 million people here: https://share.america.gov/photographic-history-americas-thanksgiving-parade/

Here’s an interesting fact about giving thanks on Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is still a day for us to show gratitude for what we have and to share our bounty with others. In many U.S. cities, volunteers prepare and serve Thanksgiving dinner to the destitute, and churches, mosques, temples and other religious centers host interfaith celebrations. Unlike some U.S. holidays, Thanksgiving is not tied to a single religious tradition, which makes it easier for people of different faiths to celebrate together, according to Christina Warner of the Shoulder-to-Shoulder Campaign, a nonprofit organization dedicated to interfaith understanding. “Breaking bread together is a fundamental way in which people of different faiths get to know each other,” Warner said.

Are you an educator looking for avenues to use theater and drama in the classroom? Would you like to foster students’ creativity, critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving skills? American Center New Delhi, in collaboration with The Kutumb Foundation, invites you to a two-day workshop on the topic "Drama-in-Education (DiE): Unpacking Drama Conventions With Educators", from Nov 21st-22nd, 2022.
In this workshop, we will learn about avenues for using theater and drama in the classroom and drama-in-education pedagogy, thereby energizing the classroom. The aim is to create a space that is safe for participants to approach a problem as ‘wholly’ and as ‘unselfconsciously’ as possible. Drama achieves this by creating the ‘big lie’ for the participants and facilitators/teachers to step in and navigate that space together, and in the process the academic objectives of the classroom get addressed ‘sideways’. This workshop is for school teachers, university professors, educators, and facilitators who want to learn how to apply these conventions in their work with students.
Agenda:
Nov 21st , 6 pm-7 pm
Plenary Discussion with Dr. Kevin Cordi, Kapil Pandey, and Manjima Chatterjee
The plenary will focus on discussing the importance of Drama-in-Education and unpacking DiE best practices from India and the U.S.A.
Nov 22nd , 4:30 pm-7:30 pm
Drama-in-Education Workshop, facilitated by Kapil Pandey, and Manjima Chatterjee
The workshop will use group exercises to help equip educators with the tools and techniques they need in order to apply drama conventions in their classrooms and educational spaces. Participants will be awarded a certificate of participation.
We have curated these sessions with the following DiE practitioners from India and the U.S.A.:
Dr. Kevin Cordi (Ohio, U.S.A.): Dr. Cordi holds a doctorate in Storytelling and Education (Drama, Literature, Reading, Language, and Culture) from The Ohio State University. He teaches literacy and education classes at Ohio University Lancaster where he serves as the Middle Childhood Coordinator. He currently serves on the National Advisory Board for Teaching Tolerance with the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Chair for Storytelling for the National Council Teachers of English. His major research interests include content and disciplinary literacy, equity education, narrative pedagogy, and The Currere Method.
Kapil Pandey (India): Kapil Pandey is the president of The Kutumb Foundation, a nonprofit that uses performing arts & sports to engage with language and holistic learning.
He is a children's writer, a storyteller and a drama-in-education practitioner. He believes that drama is a very powerful tool to create safe and reflective learning spaces in a classroom. For a living, he uses the design thinking approach to design user experiences. Kapil has been training primary and middle school teachers across India in the art of using drama as a tool for learning.
Manjima Chatterjee (India): She is a drama explorer, educator and occasional writer. She has won The Hindu Metro Plus Playwright Award in 2013. She is also co-founder and General Secretary of The Kutumb Foundation. Manjima teaches drama and has served as the head of the Arts program at Shiv Nadar School in Noida. She is currently the Vice-Principal of Shiv Nadar School in Noida.

It’s almost Thanksgiving, and today we are talking about one major aspect of the holiday, helping those in need. Observed by us on the fourth Thursday in November, Thanksgiving celebrates life’s bounty. We traditionally mark it by gathering for a meal of turkey, vegetables, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. Many of us also cook meals at soup kitchens, donate or collect food for pantries that feed the poor and distribute other basic supplies to those in need. Read more about this tradition in this share America article. https://share.america.gov/at-thanksgiving-americans-reach-out-to-those-in-need/

It’s that time of the year when we get together to give thanks on a significant day in their culture, Thanksgiving Day. But did you know that this day is more than just eating roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, cornbread, and cranberry sauce? Here are some other ways we celebrate this holiday.
• Helping those in need.
• Giving thanks for what we are grateful for.
• Participating in a “turkey trot” race or fun run
• Watching a Thanksgiving parade or football game.
This week, we will be giving you a little more information about each of these traditions so you can take part in the festivities too! Which tradition do you want to learn about first? Tell us in the comment section.

This performance by Prakriti Nanda and Manisha Swarnkar will explore iconic songs through generations that have stood up for or brought focus on our human rights. This is a unique performance where a sand artist and a musician explore the theme through two different art forms-performing and visual. It promises to be an unforgettable experience. With music influenced by John Mayer and Stevie Ray Vaughan, Prakriti Nanda is a Delhi-based queer musician who is passionate about expressing emotion through music. Her sincere, honest and intimate songwriting is based around the guitar and has expressive lyrical vocals which encourage listeners to confront their feelings. She loves combining her knowledge of music and psychology to bring about meaningful change in the people around her. Prakriti has worked in the field of music interventions for over 6 years. Her work with the Music Basti program, run by Enabling Leadership, has involved designing and implementing music intervention aimed at developing life skills in children studying in government schools. Beyond Music Basti, Prakriti has delivered music interventions aimed at improving emotional, social and cognitive health for children, adolescents and adults. She is now exploring how songwriting can be used as a tool for identity integration and improving self esteem, especially among LGBTQIA+ individuals. Manisha Swarnkar is one of the most accomplished sand artists in the country and an Alumna of IDC, IIT Bombay. She has been performing sand art for the past 10 years and is considered to be the first female sand artist from India. She has received international recognition from her involvement in award winning music videos and her sand art films have won international awards. She has been on TV shows and has been bestowed the honour of talking for TedX. Manisha's sand art tells an entire story as she makes magic out of those tiny grains.
