Stories connect the past and present to the future. Our stories and our learning from them honors and respects our ancestors and us. They can awaken future generations to their potential. They model a way to use their stories to release themselves as they connect to their history and to our values.
Lucknow Open Mic’s session 4 organised by team Havabaazi at Sheroes Hangout, Lucknow yesterday. The session started at 4pm. This time the session was all about Storytelling.
Stories have always been a part of our existence be it the traditional folklores or real life based stories. We have all grown up listening to them or reading them and this is how the idea popped up of reliving these stories in today’s fast paced internet era. The platform is already famous for the uniqueness and the theme ‘Kahaaniya’ surely proves that.
Continuing with the idea of providing the platform to youngsters and fresh talent ,the session this time also had a lot of enthusiastic storytellers reading their heart out.
