Sarees, Conversations & Wandering About
I want to gather a small group of women who'd like to spend an afternoon dressed in sarees , not for a wedding, festival, photoshoot, or cultural event, but simply because sarees are beautiful and sometimes it's nice to have an excuse to wear them.
The plan is simple: pick a pleasant spot in Bangalore (a park, museum, cafΓ©, bookstore, heritage walk, or wherever the group feels like going), show up in a saree, and spend a few hours talking.
Not networking.
Not speed friending.
Not a self improvement workshop.
Just conversation.
The kind that drifts naturally from politics to poetry, from urban planning to childhood memories, from climate change to houseplants, from literature to terrible dating stories, from why Bangalore trees are disappearing to why mangoes taste different now.
No expertise required. No agenda. No pressure to be interesting.
The idea is to create a space where women from different backgrounds can meet, wander, sit under trees, drink chai, debate things, laugh at things, disagree respectfully, and go home feeling a little less disconnected from the world.
A few thoughts:
- Open to women of all ages (18+).
- You don't need to be a saree expert. If you can drape one, great. If you're still figuring it out, also great.
- Introverts are welcome.
- Extroverts are welcome.
- Feminists, history nerds, software engineers, artists, students, academics, gardeners, readers, and people who simply want a pleasant Saturday are all welcome.
If enough people are interested, we can decide on a location, and plan a meetup.
If you've ever thought, "I wish I had more conversations that weren't about work," this might be for you.
Comment or DM if you'd be interested.
