To make museum fun as a playground and introduce art in exciting ways to children and anyone in a family, this day-long event was planned at the Museum of Art & Photography. I had the joy of coordinating this.

Manogna Kishore and I created a game for the exhibition Ticket, Tika, Chaap at the Museum of Art and Photography (MAP). Madhur Arora did a brilliant job of designing it. What was the game like? It was mostly 'I spy', with a tinch of treasure hunt but makes you understand the history of 200-years-old textile labels in their whimsical element while keeping you engaged for an hour. The exhibition, with 200+ labels, was an amazing brief to build a game which requires patience, an eye for detail and a child's curiosity to play. The quiz featured a range of difficulties from easy to difficult (it even had a tie-breaker). Some helped you understand the printing techniques in a fun way while others got your eyes squeezing into the corners of the labels. From children to adults, everyone had a good time.

Touch Tour is a different kind of guided walkthrough. It is structured in a way that allows people with visual disabilities to experience art. Museums as spaces usually are alien to the thought of letting artwork be touched. And this kind of walkthrough goes beyond that barrier and prioritises inclusion. This wouldn't have been possible without the support of Shilpa Vijayakrishnan! And I can't thank her enough for guiding and trusting me with this. Thanks to Shailesh Kulal, Meghana Rao and Rajeev Kumar for their support!
