Meet Ginny on Ginny’s planet
Ginny is a four year old girl who loves to explore, plays football, loves the rain, and many other things. She has nine fingers, a radial club hand and wears spectacles. Nobody feels like an odd-one-out on her Planet- Ginny’s Planet!
Why A Day on Ginny’s Planet?
It is an inclusive and judgement-free space open to people of all ages and where children and adults participate as equals in specially curated sessions. You could say it is a glimpse of what Ginny’s world would ideally look like!
Like Dance? We’ve got you covered. Like creating things from scratch? We have DIY sessions just for you. Want to lead a minimalistic and mindful life? Our experts (a.k.a. resource persons) will give you the most effective tips to do so! And what’s more? The event has got a lot more awesomeness to offer that we just can’t list down in this limited space!
Who can attend?
Welcome one, welcome all!
When we say it is an inclusive space and there is something for everyone, we truly mean it! Any individual who is 4 years old and above can participate. Race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity etc. – NO BAR!
P.S: For children below 8 we do suggest an adult to accompany the child for a better experience.
