Museum of Memories

15 December 2012

The Godrej India Culture Lab collaborated with Brown Paper Bag, Visual Disobedience, Junoon Theatre and RIIDL to organize The Pop Up Museum of Memories, a one-day only extraordinary event that was held in Vikhroli. This special event had live art, robots, alternate reality games, fashion shows, opera singing, rock music, dance performances, food, theatre, and much, much more, including a user-generated museum of memories, all located within a 60,000 square feet empty Godrej factory that was scheduled to be demolished the next day.

 

You can watch our composite Museum of Memories event video and see the Facebook picture gallery below. We have also put up several videos of the talks and performances in the videos section of this website, such as Do Rafique, Purva Naresh, Jahnvi Shrimankar, Payal Khandwala, Yuki Elias and Geetu Hinduja. The event was extensively covered by national media (including a cover story in Mint Lounge) and was even the backdrop of a fashion shoot by Verve magazine! The warehouse that hosted the Museum of Memories has since been demolished, but the memories live on....
