Katha invites writers and illustrators for The Katha Chitrakala Workshop from the 9th to 11th of August, 2010, at India Islamic Cultural Centre, Lodhi Road. The three-day workshop aims at providing a common platform for word and image storytellers for creative dialogue, to explore new kinds of art in Indian children’s literature, ways of seeing from a child’s eye, share best practices and learn from each other’s experiences. With editorial and design inputs from Katha, and distinguished experts in the field, the workshop will help illustrators and writers to excite and engage a child reader visually and otherwise, and, we hope, be the first step in the creation of storybooks that we all want our children to read.
