Camp
Ramayana is a month-long summer camp for children aged 5 and above. The
Ramayana is a 2000-year old epic, deeply rooted in the culture and
identity of South and Southeast Asians. Like all great epic tales, it is
a vast, complex story that captures the imagination of adults and
children alike. The Sutradhar Institute’s approach is somewhat unique in
that campers are introduced to the Ramayana through story-telling,
martial arts, yoga, mask-making, Sanskrit (the language of the epic),
poetry, rangoli (floor painting) and creative writing--thus appealing to
all children’s love of stories and story-telling. The camp has been
operating for over 20 years, with many children returning year after
year, first attending as junior campers and then later as camp
counselors.
Ramayana Camp - Dates & Times: June 20th through July 15th 2016, Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
