SUMMARY:Onam: A Community Table
DESCRIPTION:Onam is a festival of sharing\, cooking\, eating\, and making space for one another. \nThis year\, the Museum of Goa team is coming together to celebrate Onam in that spirit. We’re preparing a sadhya ourselves and inviting you to join us at the table. This is a community gathering\, prepared and hosted by the MOG team\, where food becomes a way of coming together. \nThe sadhya brings together the many dishes traditionally associated with an Onam feast\, prepared collectively by members of our team. Each person brings their own familiarity with the food\, memories of cooking\, and ways of preparing the sadhya. The emphasis is less on the meal as a gastronomic experience and more on what happens when people sit down together to eat. \nThe meal will be accompanied by a short storytelling session\, offering a glimpse into the stories\, traditions\, and memories surrounding Onam. It is an opportunity to think about how festivals travel with people\, how food carries memory\, and how communities keep traditions alive by sharing them. \nAt its heart\, this is simply an invitation to gather. Come sit at the community table\, eat a meal prepared by the MOG team\, listen to a few stories\, and celebrate Onam with us. \nDates: 29 & 30 August 2026 \nTime slots: 12:30–1:30 PM | 1:45–2:45 PM \nContribution: ₹550 per person \nVenue: Museum of Goa \nLimited seats | Register now at +91 77220 89666 \n

SUMMARY:Film Screening & Discussion: Kood
DESCRIPTION:At the edge of the city stands a bridge that people rarely visit by accident. It is a place marked by silence\, where those carrying unbearable grief often arrive believing there is nowhere else left to go. One winter morning\, two strangers find themselves there\, each having made the private decision to end their life. They do not know each other\, and neither comes seeking comfort or companionship. Yet\, in a fleeting\, almost ordinary moment\, their lives become intertwined when one of them jumps. \nDirected by Neelesh Misra and written by Anulata Raj Nair\, *Kood* is a deeply moving meditation on despair\, chance\, and the quiet possibility of hope. Rather than treating its subject with spectacle\, the film lingers in the fragile spaces between strangers\, asking how a single human encounter can alter the course of a life. It reflects on loneliness not as an isolated condition\, but as something that can be interrupted by empathy\, however unexpected it may be. With remarkable restraint and emotional honesty\, *Kood* reminds us that even at the edge of giving up\, connection can emerge in the most unforeseen ways. It is a poignant exploration of survival\, compassion\, and the extraordinary weight of a moment that changes everything. \nFree Entry | RSVP compulsory \nPlease WhatsApp your name to +91 7722089666

She covered the upheavals across India; women fighting for justice; Dalit marches against caste violence; the CAA movement; the farmers’ protests; and Anna Hazare’s anti-corruption movement. \nNow comes Gen Z\, a movement that has burst beyond convention.

SUMMARY:A Voyage to Permanence
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition celebrating visual poetry \nThe Museum of Goa (MOG) presents A Voyage to Permanence\, a three-day exhibition celebrating the visual language of independent filmmaker Purandar Chaudhuri. Bringing together experimental cinema\, photography\, sound\, and visual essays\, the exhibition offers audiences an opportunity to engage with cinema beyond the screen\, where moving images become spaces for contemplation and visual poetry. \nThe project was conceived by Jooby Yohannan\, a well-known curator from Bangalore\, & Curated by renowned art critic and curator Johny ML\, with exhibition visuals by Prakash Braggs. A Voyage to Permanence revolves around three of Chaudhuri’s seminal experimental films: Impressions of Mingling\, Tremors\, and Dhushor. Together\, these works investigate themes of migration\, labour\, impermanence and the human condition\, inviting viewers into an immersive landscape where abstraction and lived experience intersect. \nRather than documenting social realities in a conventional sense\, Chaudhuri’s films employ monochromatic imagery\, sparse dialogue\, and a fluid interplay between still and moving images to evoke the emotional and philosophical dimensions of existence. His cinematic practice resists linear storytelling\, offering meditative reflections on displacement\, collective memory\, and the fragile continuity between past and present. \nThe exhibition programme unfolds over three days: \n\n12 August: Continuous screening of Impressions of Mingling alongside the exhibition of photographic works and alternative prints.\n13 August: Continuous screening of Tremors within the exhibition space.\n14 August: A special evening screening of Dhushor in the Museum auditorium\, followed by an audience interaction with members of the creative team.\n\nThe exhibition will also mark the launch of the Goa Cyanotype Notebook\, celebrating alternative photographic processes and image-making traditions. \nA conversation will accompany the release of the photobook and screening\, featuring Jayanth Kodkani\, a well-known journalist and writer who has deep interests in Cinema & Literature\, and Nemiraj Shetty\, visual artist\, curator\, and one of the founding members of the INTACH Mangalore chapter.  \n

SUMMARY:Artist Trading Cards by LAFA × Museum of Goa
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate one year of Artist Trading Cards (ATC) at LAFA\, we’re excited to collaborate with the Museum of Goa for a special edition of our monthly trading session. \nWhether you’re an artist\, illustrator\, designer\, student\, hobbyist\, or simply curious about making art\, this is an open and welcoming space to create\, connect\, and exchange original artworks with others. \nDate: Sunday\, August 2\, 2026 \nTime: 3:30 PM – 6:00 PM \nVenue: Museum of Goa\, Pilerne \nThis Month’s Prompt: MOG (Love) \nLove can mean many things. It can be personal or political\, joyful or complicated\, quiet or loud. \nWhether you express it\, question it\, remember it\, or create from it—begin with love\, and see where it takes you. \nThe prompt is only a starting point. Interpret it in your own way and let your creativity lead. \nWhat is an Artist Trading Card? \nArtist Trading Cards (ATCs) are miniature original artworks\, each measuring 2.5 × 3.5 inches—the same size as a Pokémon or playing card. \nUnlike regular artworks\, ATCs are created to be traded\, not sold. Every exchange is an opportunity to meet another artist\, discover new ideas\, and build a collection of original works made by people in your creative community. \nEach card is unique\, making every trade a small exchange of stories\, styles\, and perspectives. \nHow It Works \nCreate your cards before the event and bring them along for the trading session. \nDuring the event\, participants will meet one another\, view each other’s work\, and exchange cards through mutual agreement. There are no competitions or judging—just conversations\, creativity\, and trading. \nArtist Trading Card Guidelines \nPlease keep the following in mind while making your cards: \n\nCard size must be 2.5 × 3.5 inches (64 × 89 mm).\nAny medium is welcome—drawing\, painting\, collage\, printmaking\, photography\, mixed media\, embroidery\, digital prints\, and more.\nEvery card must be an original artwork.\nSign and date the back of each card. You may also include your artist name or social media handle if you’d like.\nCards are made for trading only\, not for sale.\nOnly trade cards that you have made yourself.\nBoth portrait and landscape orientations are welcome.\nPlease keep your cards neat\, finished\, and ready to trade.\nWe recommend bringing at least 10 cards so you can enjoy a good round of trading.\nAll ages\, backgrounds\, and experience levels are welcome.\nNeed Materials?\n\nPre-cut Artist Trading Card blanks are available free of cost from: \n\nLAFA Shop\, Caranzalem\nMuseum of Goa Reception Desk\, Pilerne\n\nYou are welcome to use your own cardstock as long as it matches the required dimensions. \nRegistration \nThis is a free event\, but spaces are limited to 50 participants. \nPlease register using this form with your name and contact details to confirm your spot. \nRegistration closes on Saturday\, August 1\, 2026\, at 12:00 PM\, or earlier if all spots are filled. \nRegister Here \n
