Mumbai: For nine days, Mumbai will experience art at its colourful best. Infused with values such as inclusivity and sustainability through this year’s theme ‘Udaan’, the vibrant calendar of events at Kala Ghoda Arts Festival (KGAF) promises a grand celebration of diversity between Saturday, Jan 20, and Jan 28. From live paintings created by differently abled persons to heritage walks supported by sign language experts, from spoken word performances by transpersons to workshops that will help you see the world through the perspective of those who cannot see, the annual cultural extravaganza returns in its 24th edition with the aim of “spreading awareness of the arts among people with limited access and exposure to culture”.
A tentpole event on the city’s cultural calendar since 1999, KGAF—in association with The Times of India— will be part of Mumbai Festival 2024, a cultural initiative by the Government of Maharashtra, this year.The nine-day confluence of visual arts, dance, music, theatre, literature and stand-up will spread itself across 25 iconic venues in the crescent-shaped Kala Ghoda precinct which, apart from the staples of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya and Cross Maidan, include the recently-restored David Sassoon Library. “With the support of the BMC, this edition has much to offer enthusiasts of varied art forms,” says Brinda Miller, festival director and chairperson of the Kala Ghoda Association, who is excited about the return of the literary section to the David Sassoon Library in the wake of restoration.
