There will be discussions on free-waste living, tips and tricks, followed by a workshop on how to make your very own scrub with coffee waste. The event will be held at the Maverick & Farmer Café, Gangadhar Chetty Road, Sivanchetti Gardens, Ulsoor, Bengaluru, on 11 June from 3-4pm. The cost of the event, which includes refreshments, is 500.

Building a story within the frame

Dhoomimal Gallery, in collaboration with Gallerie Splash, is presenting a solo show of Ashok Bhowmick’s paintings. From monochromes in 1974 to the use of bright solid backdrops with cross-hatched figures from 2002, his art has come a long way. “I wish my paintings would talk to the viewer as an intimate friend and not as a philosopher in the guise of a painter,” notes Bhowmick. “I do not believe in building a story outside the frame of a painting.” At Dhoomimal Gallery, Delhi, till 9 July
