Art meets style



CREATIVE BEST From Falguni’s collection

Jadau jewellery created by the celebrated designer Falguni Mehta and inspired by Paresh Maity will be on display at FFolio on January 24 and 25, 2008. This collection blends Maity’s art art with her gold and jadau creations.

In a creative experiment to combine art with jewellery, Falguni brings an array of jewellery pieces in gold and kundan. An exclusive two-day event, Falguni will showcase her creative designs that are a blend of ethnic and tribal ideas translated into contemporary motifs using varied mediums and Basra moti.

Each piece is handcrafted and self designed.

Geedee Farms is organising an overnight wildlife adventure camp on February 9 and 10 for 30 children. Through a series of activities from trekking to bird watching, children will both gain a valuable and hands-on experience as well as learn techniques in ecology and wildlife biology.

Geedee is nestled along the boundary of the Bannergatta National Park and the wildlife includes elephants, gaur, bear, leopard, snakes and many others. There will be one faculty member for every five children, allowing no possibility for your child to be out of sight. They also have one wilderness medic with them at all times and a medical set up.

There are large room-like Swiss tents, set up on concrete platforms and sheltered with a tin roof above them. Girls and boys have separate tents and the faculty will be with them at all times.

There is a very well-structured bathroom and toilet block with separate units for girls and boys. The food is vegetarian and there will also be milk and juices served.

The children will travel in buses starting and returning to St. Joseph’s Indian High School grounds. Departure is at 6 a.m. on February 9 and return at 7 p.m. on February 10. The last date for registration is January 26. Contact 9886169698/9480109467.
