SUMMARY:Your Book\, Our Ooru
DESCRIPTION:BLR Reads – Library and Archives in collaboration with SkiLlit Readers presents Your Book\, Our Ooru – Exploring Bengaluru through Books. \nJoin us for a unique BYOB workshop where your personal library becomes the map to our city. Bring a book of your choice—any fiction or non-fiction—that features Bangalore\, and let’s explore how this “Ooru” is captured in its pages. This is not a passive discussion. We will dive deep using immersive\, experiential tools\, from movement to music\, to unpack the city’s identity. Together\, we’ll connect with fellow participants\, share how our chosen books represent Bangalore\, and see how these literary portrayals stack up against our own lived experiences. Prepare for an unforgettable hour of connection\, discovery\, and a new way to see your book and your city. \nSkilLit Readers is a story-led skills lab that transforms books into launchpads for real-world expression and thinking. They re-imagine what reading can lead to with the help of integrated and multidisciplinary learning. Specifically for adults\, we aim to create safe\, story-rich environments where they form authentic connections and community through books\, stories\, and exploration. They use music\, roleplay\, pictures\, writing\, art\, craft\, building\, movement\, games and polls to convert books into creative experiences. We are led by a team of LSE\, Columbia University\, and Azim Premji University Alumnae. \nBook recommendations for the interactive session: \n– Bangalore Detectives Club – any of the books in the series\n– Chikkama Tours Pvt Ltd\n– Becoming Bengaluru\n– Namma Bangalore\n– Bangalore Blues\n– Any essays or short stories also work \nRegister Here!
