SUMMARY:Sangeeta Sandrasegar Atrium Commission
DESCRIPTION:  \nI ragazzi dei millefiori: the flow’rs of song and story is a new artwork exploring ideas of migration and the storied history of plants and colour. \nIn partnership with the Australian Tapestry Workshop\, this spring we are unveiling a new textile installation by artist Sangeeta Sandrasegar working with natural dye expert Heather Thomas. \nSuspended from the ceiling in the open space of the Atrium\, the work comprises panels of silk organza and cotton coloured with plant dyes derived from Indian madder root\, eucalyptus leaves\, and weld and marigold flowers\, among others. \nWithin the fabric\, details will appear\, including botanical illustrations referencing a 16th century Italian tapestry\, the Millefiori Tapestry of Pistoia\, and archival imagery of flower sellers at this site\, on Princes Bridge in the early 1900s. \nThe artwork explores themes of migration and cultural identity through a myriad of ideas – the histories of the production of colour through plant material\, the representation of gardens and plants in classical tapestries\, the craftsmanship behind textiles\, and the story of young immigrants newly arrived from Italy selling flowers in market stalls. \nBringing together these threads\, Sangeeta’s work explores the ways in which we have related to flowers and plants throughout history\, and how cultural connection is embedded in stories of plants within narratives of migration\, hybridity and identity. \nGET TICKETS HERE: https://fedsquare.com/events/sangeeta-sandrasegar-atrium-commission

SUMMARY:Who are these demonesses?
DESCRIPTION:  \nAn exploration of ancestral memory\, defiance and embodied knowledge carried through women and fluid beings who were demonised for their refusal to conform.   \nWho are these demonesses? draws on stories of the Dakini\, witch\, wild woman and ogress who protected the sovereignty of their bodies and their people’s lands. For this\, those in power tried to kill and reduce them to cautionary tales.   \nYet they lived on – in the elements\, in a shawl passed down by a grandmother\, in family and in intuition.  \nIn Who are these demonesses?\, artist Sheelasha Rajbhandari honours intuition\, suggesting that returning to our senses is a radical act of defiance in structures that thrive on exhaustion\, imposter syndrome and isolation. The work tends to an ancient and living presence within us and acts as a refusal to internalise stories that were weaponised to diminish and erase.  \nAbout the artist:  \nSheelasha is part of a growing ecosystem of artists\, curators\, researchers\, designers\, activists\, archivists\, and cultural workers who wear multiple hats and are initiating and sustaining practices beyond formal institutions. Alongside others\, she navigates systems shaped by care\, ancestral knowledge\, and structural difference. Her work goes beyond making or curating; it is about holding space\, resisting erasure\, and imagining new ways of being in relation. She is also committed to reclaiming how stories are shared\, bringing them to international platforms with dignity\, complexity\, and self-determination to shift conversations and redefine terms of engagement. \nGET TICKETS HERE: https://www.artshouse.com.au/events/who-are-these-demonesses/

SUMMARY:Daytime Deewane at Riverside Theatre
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n1997. London. A daytime nightclub. \n\n\nMeet cousins Farhan and Sadiq. One quiet\, one wild\, both looking to escape. \nSet in the legendary daytime raves of the 1990s\, Daytime Deewane is a tender portrait of what it means to be torn between respect and rebellion. As the dance floor fills and the afternoon unfolds\, Farhan is still clutching his school bag and how Sadiq got that Motorola flip phone is a mystery only he can solve. \nThe two young ravers open their hearts and stomp their feet as they try to figure out how to shake off their ancestral shame and be a good Muslim boy and a proper British man – and they’ve got until 6pm to figure it out. \nThis exhilarating play by award-winning UK writer Azan Ahmed is a tour-de-force of theatrical storytelling. Mixing spoken word and Bhangra fused dance music to create an immersive world that pulls audiences out of their seats and into the crowd for “one more tune” and a true taste of freedom. \nContent warning: As part of depicting the experience of British South Asians in the 1990s\, at times characters in the play referred to language which is racially offensive. \n\nGET YOUR TICKETS HERE

SUMMARY:#LightaLife This Diwali - Pratham Aus
DESCRIPTION:  \nDiwali – India’s festival of lights – is just around the corner. It is a time for celebrating the triumph of light over darkness\, knowledge over ignorance\, good over evil and\, hope over despair. As we light diyas in our homes\, we are reminded that even a small flame can illuminate the darkest night and that there is always hope for better things to come.  \nThis Diwali\, we are inviting you to help spread that light even further – by supporting our  #LightaLife Diwali Fundraiser in aid of the Second Chance Program.\n🪔  Every $20 donation lights 1 diya\n🪔  Every 25 diyas lit ($500) gives 1 girl in India a Second Chance at education\nThat’s one more girl with renewed hope\, one more future changed for the better. \nSince its inception in 2011\, this alternative learning model has positively impacted the lives of more than 50\,000 girls and women\, helping them re-enter education\, achieve qualifications\, and build pathways to employment and independence. \nThis Diwali\, let’s keep that momentum going. \nHelp us light more diyas. Help us light more lives. \nPlease follow our journey of lighting a path to education and meet the girls whose lives you are changing on Facebook\, Instagram and LinkedIn. \nDONATE HERE: https://www.pratham.org.au/lightalife-2025

SUMMARY:Daytime Deewane - National Theatre of Parramatta
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n1997. London. A daytime nightclub. \n\n\nMeet cousins Farhan and Sadiq. One quiet\, one wild\, both looking to escape. \nSet in the legendary daytime raves of the 1990s\, Daytime Deewane is a tender portrait of what it means to be torn between respect and rebellion. As the dance floor fills and the afternoon unfolds\, Farhan is still clutching his school bag and how Sadiq got that Motorola flip phone is a mystery only he can solve. \nThe two young ravers open their hearts and stomp their feet as they try to figure out how to shake off their ancestral shame and be a good Muslim boy and a proper British man – and they’ve got until 6pm to figure it out. \nThis exhilarating play by award-winning UK writer Azan Ahmed is a tour-de-force of theatrical storytelling. Mixing spoken word and Bhangra fused dance music to create an immersive world that pulls audiences out of their seats and into the crowd for “one more tune” and a true taste of freedom. \nContent warning: As part of depicting the experience of British South Asians in the 1990s\, at times characters in the play referred to language which is racially offensive. \n\nGET TICKETS HERE: https://riversideparramatta.com.au/whats-on/daytime-deewane/

SUMMARY:Melbourne Veena Festival 2025 - The Boite & Pichumani School of Carnatic Music
DESCRIPTION:  \nVeena is a delicate\, beautiful instrument that\, in the hands of a master\, can express all the nuances of Carnatic vocal and instrumental music from South India. The veena has a unique tonal quality due to its construction\, starting with a bass sound in the lower octaves and shriller tones in the higher octaves\, very similar to the human voice. The Melbourne Veena Festival is dedicated to showcasing this unique instrument. \nMelbourne Veena Festival 2025 will feature the renowned artist from India\, Ms Hemalatha Mani. The festival will also showcase Australia’s own Iyer Brothers (Ramnath Iyer OAM & Gopinath Iyer OAM) and their disciples. \nHemalatha Mani\, a differently abled artist\, is an illustrious disciple of the Veena Virtuoso Dr Chitti Babu. She is known for her tuneful and sweet melodies on the strings. Iyer Brothers are one of Australia’s finest veena players. Six of their disciples: Aneka Srinivasan\, Divija Akella\, Esha Rohan\, Nisha Iyer\, Pramodh Sri and Tharyny Sri\, will present a 42-string ensemble. \nPercussion support will be provided by the younger generation Australian artists\, Madhav Sanjeev\, Siddharth Dhananjay and Thiyagasamudram G Siddhanth. \nThe 2025 festival will celebrate the 250th centenary of the renowned composer Muthuswamy Dikshitar. \nGET TICKETS HERE: https://www.theround.com.au/veena-festival

SUMMARY:Daytime Deewane - National Theatre of Parramatta
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n1997. London. A daytime nightclub. \n\n\nMeet cousins Farhan and Sadiq. One quiet\, one wild\, both looking to escape. \nSet in the legendary daytime raves of the 1990s\, Daytime Deewane is a tender portrait of what it means to be torn between respect and rebellion. As the dance floor fills and the afternoon unfolds\, Farhan is still clutching his school bag and how Sadiq got that Motorola flip phone is a mystery only he can solve. \nThe two young ravers open their hearts and stomp their feet as they try to figure out how to shake off their ancestral shame and be a good Muslim boy and a proper British man – and they’ve got until 6pm to figure it out. \nThis exhilarating play by award-winning UK writer Azan Ahmed is a tour-de-force of theatrical storytelling. Mixing spoken word and Bhangra fused dance music to create an immersive world that pulls audiences out of their seats and into the crowd for “one more tune” and a true taste of freedom. \nContent warning: As part of depicting the experience of British South Asians in the 1990s\, at times characters in the play referred to language which is racially offensive. \n\nGET TICKETS HERE: https://riversideparramatta.com.au/whats-on/daytime-deewane/

SUMMARY:International Chapter 15 Geeta Chanting Competition 2025 - 2026
DESCRIPTION:✨ Bhagavad Geeta Chanting Competition – A Blessing for All Ages ✨ \nChanting the verses of the Bhagavad Geeta is more than recitation—it is a timeless practice that nurtures the body\, mind\, and spirit. \nFor Children\, it sharpens memory\, improves pronunciation\, and instills values. \nFor Teenagers\, it builds confidence\, focus\, and inner clarity to face peer pressure and life’s challenges. \nFor Youth and Young Adults\, it offers strength\, stress relief\, and direction for a purposeful life. \nFor Adults\, it provides peace\, balance\, and wisdom amidst daily responsibilities. \nFor Seniors\, chanting is deeply nourishing. Studies show that rhythmic chanting and sound vibrations stimulate the brain’s memory centres\, improve concentration\, and slow cognitive decline. It supports better sleep\, reduces anxiety\, and can even help delay age-related conditions such as dementia and Alzheimer’s. Beyond health\, chanting fills the heart with devotion\, joy\, and inner calm. \n📖 Modern science affirms what our tradition has always known: chanting heals\, strengthens\, and uplifts. By joining this competition\, participants of all ages not only learn the Geeta’s verses but also embrace a practice that brings lifelong clarity\, strength\, and peace. \nLast and Final Call for registration.\nRegistration Closes Sunday 31st August\, 2025. \nJoin and be part of this grand offering to Lord Krishna and Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda. \nRegister here: International Bhagavad Geeta Chanting Competition 2025-2026 Tickets | TryBooking Australia
