SUMMARY:Chronicles of a Global City
DESCRIPTION:The Author of the Month Series is conceived as a year-long curatorial programme at BLR Reads – Library and Archive\, reinforcing the library’s identity as an open cultural and civic space. Rooted in BLR Reads’ philosophy of reading beyond books\, the series will feature one author each month in focused book discussions that connect literature with broader themes of the city\, history\, design\, culture\, and everyday lived experiences. The initiative seeks to deepen reader engagement\, encourage sustained community participation\, and cultivate collaborations with authors\, publishers\, academic institutions\, and cultural organisations. As an outreach effort\, the series will increase BLR Reads’ visibility\, strengthen its networks\, and position it as a regular and meaningful presence within Bengaluru’s literary and cultural landscape. \nThe edition will centre on Chronicles of a Global City\, featuring a conversation between Carol Upadhya and Swathi Shivanand with Champaka Rajagopal\, further positioning the series as a vibrant space for dialogue\, reflection and shared learning. Set against the evolving urban fabric of Bengaluru\, the book brings together diverse voices to unpack the complexities of a rapidly globalising city tracing intersections of migration\, labour\, infrastructure and everyday life. Through layered narratives and critical insights\, it explores how the city is shaped as much by policy and capital as by the lived experiences of its people\, making it a compelling lens to understand Bengaluru’s past\, present and possible futures. \nAuthor of the month – Carol Upadhya  \nCarol Upadhya\, a social anthropologist\, is Honorary Visiting Professor at the National Institute of Advanced Studies\, Bengaluru\, India\, where she heads the Urban and Mobility Studies. She is the author of Reengineering India: Work\, Capital\, and Class in an Offshore Economy (Oxford University Press\, 2016)\, and her monograph on the Amaravati project in Andhra Pradesh is forthcoming from Berghahn Books (May 2026). \nSwathi Shivanand is a historian with research interests in modern and contemporary India and its development trajectories. She teaches at Manipal Academy of Higher Education in the Bengaluru campus. \nChampaka Rajagopal is an independent practitioner and researcher in urban policy\, planning and governance. She brings over twenty years of experience of having worked with national\, state and local governments in several countries including India\, USA\, China\, France\, Sri Lanka\, Libya\, Vietnam and Indonesia. \nRSVP Here!

SUMMARY:Notting Hill
DESCRIPTION:BLR Reads – Library and Archive in collaboration with Bangalore Readers Society presents a screening of Notting Hill – which isn’t just a movie about love\, it’s about timing\, courage\, and the risk of opening your life to someone unexpected. \nAn unassuming bookstore owner.

SUMMARY:The Bengaluru Climate Party
DESCRIPTION:The Climate Party in collaboration with Mod Foundation presents the 14th edition of the Bengaluru Climate Party with a focus on Hidden Water Systems: Walking the line between History and Innovation \nIt’s almost summertime in Bengaluru…the time when the city makes it to the news every year for its water crisis. As we continue to face recurring water challenges in the city\, this session shifts the focus from crisis to understanding\, unpacking how historical systems\, governance and innovation shape the way water flows through the city today. Through Walk on Bengaluru\, an immersive\, research-based experience curated by MOD Foundation\, participants will engage with large-scale floor maps\, trace the transition from tank systems to modern supply networks and build a deeper spatial understanding of the city’s waterscapes. \nThe session also brings together two perspectives through a dialogue on systems and solutions. Pavan Srinath\, managing partner of WELL Labs\, reflects on policy shifts and climate strategies shaping a more resilient Bengaluru\, while Vikas Brahmavar\, co-founder of Boson Whitewater\, shares on-ground innovations in wastewater recovery and circular water systems. Together\, the session offers a data-backed\, multi-layered view into the city’s invisible water infrastructure inviting participants to see Bengaluru through a new lens. \nRSVP Here! \n

SUMMARY:Public Realm in India
DESCRIPTION:Mod Foundation\, in collaboration with Charles Correa Foundation\, presents the exclusive screening of the Nagari Short Film Competition 2025. \nThis year’s theme\, Public Realm in Urban India\, explores and documents the character of public spaces in Indian cities. Conventionally\, public spaces are understood as places open and accessible to all\, such as maidans\, parks\, and waterfronts. However\, the density and everyday dynamics of Indian cities expand this idea to include streets\, footpaths\, markets\, alleyways\, and transport infrastructure. These spaces function as vibrant arenas of daily life where multiple activities unfold simultaneously. The public realm in India is therefore layered and constantly shifting\, shaped by patterns of use\, scale\, and social interaction that vary across time\, seasons\, and communities. It is within these spaces that urban culture is most visibly expressed and negotiated. With public space at its core\, Nagari will explore how people across caste\, class\, gender\, and age engage with and shape the public realm. \nJoin us for an evening of short film screenings followed by a Q&A with the CCF team and the filmmakers. \nRSVP Here!

Challenging traditional approaches to urban design and planning\, the book argues that resilient futures begin with making the full complexity of cities understandable to all. Drawing from cultural anthropology\, systems thinking\, behavioral science\, economics\, and technology\, Jain proposes fresh frameworks to address long-standing gaps in housing\, transport\, healthcare\, education\, and governance. Embracing uncertainty rather than resisting it\, he makes a case for adaptive\, inclusive cities that are vibrant\, healthy\, and prepared for change.\n\nSpeaker Note:\nArun Jain is a multidisciplinary urban designer and strategist with over four decades of experience across professional practice and academia. This includes institutions\, city executive positions\, and the UN. His professional contributions span 165 cities across 46 countries\, impacting over 90 public and private sector urban development projects. Arun has taught at six universities with contributions in both print and digital media. His new book “Reframing Cities for Resilience: Embracing Complex & Uncertain Futures” is published by Routledge. Arun is a Fulbright Specialist and a Fellow of the American Institute of Certified Planners.\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_btn size=”large” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” color_override=”#f59f40″ solid_text_color_override=”#000000″ icon_family=”linecons” text=”REGISTER HERE!” url=”https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScIXGFGl3OtZIqijjkim1l4YO-MNrz30pOyjNCPKYN9tzIk4Q/viewform?pli=1&#8243; icon_linecons=”vc_li vc_li-clip”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Roots To Routes
DESCRIPTION:Roots to Routes is an interactive workshop that explores the deep connection between soil health and gut health. Through conversation\, reflection\, and hands-on engagement\, the session traces the journey of food — from local farms to global supply chains — and questions how modern food systems impact both personal wellbeing and planetary health. \nBy reconnecting participants to what is seasonal\, native\, and locally grown\, the workshop invites a more conscious relationship with food. Roots to Routes is not just about what we eat\, but about understanding the ecological\, cultural\, and systemic routes that shape our plates — and how small shifts in awareness can lead to healthier bodies and more resilient communities. \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:The Familiar Unknown - Zine Launch and Artist Showcase
DESCRIPTION:This gathering marks the unveiling of The Familiar Unknown\, a collaborative publication emerging from Five60’s Malleshwaram Photo Walk. The project invited individual photographers to respond to a shared geography not as tourists but as observers — documenting fragments of contemporary life through distinct personal lenses. \nThe event will unfold as a collective reflection. We begin with an introduction to the intent behind the project\, followed by projected presentations of selected works and a moderated discussion with renowned photographer Mr Mahesh Bhatt around proximity and the anthropology of the everyday. The evening culminates in the formal launch of the zine and an open dialogue with participating artists. \nMore than a showcase\, this is an inquiry into how multiple perspectives can converge to construct a layered portrait of a place and how contemporary photography can transform the familiar into something newly visible. \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:The Shared Shelf
DESCRIPTION:The Shared Shelf is an all-day participatory event for librarians\, educators\, authors\, illustrators\, children’s book publishers\, caregivers\, and community practitioners who see libraries as spaces of dignity\, access\, and possibility.\nThrough conversations and hands-on workshops\, the day will explore how ideas of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion are practised in real\, everyday library contexts. This is not about perfect answers\, but about asking better questions together. \nWhy Shared Shelf Matters? \nMany children\, especially from under-resourced backgrounds\, have never had the opportunity to find themselves in stories or experience the magic of getting lost in a good book. Libraries can change that — but only if they are welcoming\, vibrant spaces led by librarians who make the experience meaningful for every child. The programme features an experienced and diverse group of facilitators working at the intersection of libraries\, children’s literature\, disability inclusion\, community learning\, narrative practice\, and independent bookselling including: \n\nSmt. Uma Mahadevan Dasgupta – Additional Chief Secretary and Development Commissioner\, Karnataka.\nNamita Susan Jacob – Program Director\, Chetana Charitable Trust\nJatin Lalit Singh – Director\, Free Libraries Network & CEO Aruna Mithlesh Foundation\nMenaka Raman – Author\nDr. Raviraj Shetty – Narrative Practices India Collective\nBarkha Sharda – That Book Store\nAparna Sree Prakash – Co-ordinator Inclusive Services\, Chetana Charitable Trust\nTeresa Antony – Lead: Inclusive Design\, Chetana Charitable Trust\n\nRSVP Here! \n

SUMMARY:Walk on Bangalore - From Tanks to Taps
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Building a Resilient Bengaluru project\, supported by Bengaluru Sustainability Forum\, we’re bringing back our interactive floor activity exploring the city’s evolving relationship with water. Get ready to let your imagination fly! \nWhy is Bangalore—unlike most major cities around the world—not built near a perennial source of water? How has this geographical reality shaped the evolution of its infrastructure\, culture\, and people’s everyday relationship with water? \nWalk on Bangalore: Between Tanks and Taps is an interactive research-based session by the Mod Foundation that explores the city’s unique and evolving relationship with water. From its natural topography and historic manmade tank systems to the arrival of piped water and rapid urban expansion\, this experience unpacks how the city’s lifeline has shifted over time. \nToday\, Bangalore faces mounting water crises—frequent shortages\, over-extraction of groundwater\, and a fragile dependence on distant sources. We believe the key to understanding and overcoming these challenges lies in looking back: in learning how we got here\, what we’ve gained\, and what we’ve lost along the way. \nWhat to Expect:\n\nImmersive Floor Maps that let you trace the city’s waterscapes\nEngaging Questions designed to prompt reflection and dialogue\nInteractive Storytelling on how our connection to water has changed—and continues to evolve\nInsights into urban systems\, growth patterns\, and the politics of water access\n\nThis isn’t just a walk-through history—it’s a step into the living\, breathing urban story of Bangalore’s water. \nJoin us to reimagine the city through its most vital resource. \nRSVP Here!

SUMMARY:Movie Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the BLR Design Centre for a meaningful movie screening and discussion in collaboration with the Bangalore Readers Society – a community for people who like to think slowly in a fast city. We read together\, screen meaningful films\, host expert sessions\, and have conversations that don’t rush. Built by readers\, for readers. \nThe screening will feature – Good Will Hunting a film about intelligence that hides in unlikely places\, and the cost of protecting it. At its heart\, it’s not about genius\, but about fear: fear of failure\, fear of intimacy\, fear of becoming more than what you’ve been told you are. Through conversations rather than spectacle\, the film asks a simple but uncomfortable question – What do you do when your potential demands responsibility? \nAn intimate screening\, followed by a thoughtful conversation that lingers beyond the film. \nThe event is free and open to all—come watch\, engage\, and be inspired! \nRSVP Here!

SUMMARY:Author of the Month - Robert Stephens
DESCRIPTION:The Author of the Month Series is conceived as a year-long curatorial programme at BLR Reads – Library and Archive\, reinforcing the library’s identity as an open cultural and civic space. Rooted in BLR Reads’ philosophy of reading beyond books\, the series will feature one author each month in focused book discussions that connect literature with broader themes of the city\, history\, design\, culture\, and everyday lived experiences. The initiative seeks to deepen reader engagement\, encourage sustained community participation\, and cultivate collaborations with authors\, publishers\, academic institutions\, and cultural organisations. Each session will be supported by curated reading lists and\, where appropriate\, complementary activities such as talks\, walks\, or exhibitions. As an outreach effort\, the series will increase BLR Reads’ visibility\, strengthen its networks\, and position it as a regular and meaningful presence within Bengaluru’s literary and cultural landscape. \n\nAuthor of the Month – Robert Stephens \nRobert Stephens is an architect who loves to write. Bombay Imagined\, An Illustrated History of the Unbuilt City is his first book\, published by his homegrown studio\, Urbs Indis. After relocating to Bengaluru in 2023\, Robert expanded the creative work of Urbs Indis to include an independent architecture practice. The firm’s first built project\, the Urbs Indis Library & Garden\, is a home-studio-library where Robert lives with his wife\, son\, cat and dog. The off-grid space houses more than 1\,000 rare books on urban India\, with more than 400 publications dedicated to Mumbai. The collection is publicly accessible six days a week\, and the space hosts a range of events throughout the year\, including architectural walkthroughs\, illustrated talks\, and most recently\, the launch of the Bombay Imagined second edition in December 2025. \nBombay Imagined – Rewriting Bengaluru’s future through a reading of Mumbai’s unbuilt past.  \nBombay Imagined explores plans from Mumbai’s past that remain forever unrealized\, including humane housing for all\, ambitious urban park systems\, natural sewage treatment networks\, decentralized water supply schemes\, public libraries and more. Ideas that never saw the light of day are richly illustrated with archival drawings\, contemporary speculations and artistic overlays. The heavily illustrated talk speculates that ideas never die\, even if they remain unbuilt\, and their reading in the 21st Century can rewrite Bengaluru’s future in new and unexpected ways. \nRSVP Here!

SUMMARY:Padayaatre - A Journey into the Kannada Poetry World
DESCRIPTION:Padayaatre is a quiet\, ongoing journey of Kannada poetry-reading of over eleven years. A committed group of Kannada literature lovers gather one Sunday every month for this non-performance\, un-themed event\, brought together by their love for reading and listening to poems\, primarily\, and sometimes fragments of prose\, essays\, and stories that have recently moved them. A small\, committed circle has stayed together for several years\, while others arrive\, stay awhile and move on\, too.

Set against the backdrop of a world where surveillance has become pervasive and almost invisible\, the film follows Shalini — a former wrestler turned nightclub bouncer — whose life spirals into uncertainty with the introduction of wearable surveillance in her workplace. Featuring a powerful performance by Jyoti Dogra\, recipient of the Critics’ Choice Award for Best Actress for this role\, Taak exposes the fear\, resistance\, and quiet rebellion that surface when technology encroaches upon women’s autonomy and agency. \nProduced through the Museum of Imagined Futures Impact Film Accelerator\, Taak operates both as a cinematic narrative and an impact campaign — envisioning futures where technology upholds the fundamental right to privacy. \nThe screening will be followed by an LCT expert talk\, a format that brings together leading voices to deliver sharp\, 20-minute reflections on pressing questions at the intersection of technology\, culture\, and society. As the future continues to arrive ahead of our readiness\, LCT creates a critical space for forward thinking and dialogue. \nJoin us for an evening of cinema and conversation as we explore the subtle but urgent implications of surveillance on personal freedom and social landscapes. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_btn size=”jumbo” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Extra-Color-3″ solid_text_color_override=”#ffffff” icon_family=”none” text=”RSVP Here” url=”https://forms.gle/KbYJX61QaE8GcAKv7″%5D%5B/vc_column%5D%5B/vc_row%5D
