The workshops run at 1:30 PM and 3:30 PM on both weekend days: pottery, candle making, resin art, canvas painting under UV, traditional Indian folk art. Each is about two hours, beginner-friendly, and ends with something you made in your hands. At 4:30 PM the room turns into The Social Mixer — hosted board games for people who want to meet people. You can do a workshop and stay for the mixer; plenty do.
Getting there and what is around
The venue is Rude Lounge, Ground Floor, Saraswati Kunj CHS, Jawahar Nagar, Powai, Mumbai 400076, close to Hiranandani Gardens and a short walk from Powai Lake. From Andheri, Ghatkopar or Vikhroli it is roughly half an hour by cab; from Hiranandani itself, a ten-minute walk. Galleria and the restaurants along South Avenue are right there for before or after, and the lake promenade is the obvious place to end the evening.
