How does a shy, young boy grow up to become the Father of a Nation?

This interactive storytelling session takes us back to the childhood of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. From his hometown to his school days, the session is filled with songs, drama, and adventure. There is power in speaking the truth, and together, we shall find it!

Around the World in 50 Sundays is a journey that begins, not with a ticket, but with opening a book. In a city like Bangalore where families are always in motion, the BIC Library hopes to offer stillness and a quiet, welcoming space for both parents and children where reading becomes a shared experience. Every Sunday, we open our doors to invite you into a library that listens; building a rhythm of return, a habit of joy and a new community bound not just by books, but by the weekly ritual of reading together. 

We welcome your ideas and input. If you have suggestions for children’s events or activities that align with this vision, we’d love to hear from you. Please reach out to us at library@bangaloreinternationalcentre.org
