Register on BookMyShow to join in the International Clown Festival virtually. They will share jokes, riddles, fun stories, songs and of course horse around. Enjoy some magic, juggling, quirky humour and childlike banter in an evening of laughter and celebration.

GET CREATIVE

What: In keeping with its vision of bringing art to the people, the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art is initiating a unique competition that seeks to engage children in its latest project. Titled ‘Mask A Thon’, the contest is an effort to help encourage children to use their creativity, and not allow the lockdown to diminish students’ engagement with the arts. Thus, the competition challenges schoolchildren to use the mask as a canvas for their creative effort. The choice of the mask is significant as it is one of the main tool being used to combat the virus. It also serves to highlight the key role played by healthcare workers in managing the pandemic. The winning works will be printed on the masks and showcased for the world to view. When: Entries till May 23. Results on May 30.
