Add Bimba to your life, this Navaratri.

If you are a connoisseur of art and  value Indian culture,  history,  heritage, craft, textiles then we cross paths, read ahead.

Bimba - the art ashram  @ Bangalore  is one such place. An initiative by Deepika, a textile graduate from New Delhi and her husband Mr. Deepak Doraiswamy  who is an IISc and IIM grad.   I have already blogged about  the wonderful evening we experienced  here.   Anything more I write about it would be a repeat of   here.  So check out the following invite and if you are in Bangalore this Navaratri,   experience  rasalok at Bimba and do visit their art store at Jayanagar( address on the website).
