Few books remain as timeless as ‘Animal Farm’. As a book that deals with powerful issues such as ‘power’, ‘inequality’, ‘leadership’, and ‘ community’, it remains as relevant today as it did in the 1940s. Join Joy of Anubhava as we engage with this book through a ‘virtual’ workshop for adults using storytelling, role plays, photos, writing, debates, and music.
Given the situation in the world today, we can all use authentic connection with our peers. Joy of Anubhava provides you that opportunity to connect with other individuals who love this book as well. Through this two-hour online workshop, we not only deep dive into the storyline and the characters but also time travel with them. Get ready to answer thought-provoking “what if” questions, to meet new people, form genuine connections, and above all have fun dabbling with different art forms as we explore a classic book!
