MERAKI- PERFORMING ARTS FESTIVAL

"Art doesn’t give rise to anything in us that isn’t already there. It simply stirs our curious consciousness and sparks a fire that illuminates who we have always wanted to be".

With the purpose of unlocking the aesthetic talent and skills of its students, Khaitan Public School organizes Meraki, a week-long Performing Arts Festival. The Greek word ‘Meraki’ means to put soul, passion and creativity into what one creates or produces. The purpose of this festival is to showcase the talent and creativity of the students in the different facets of dance, theatre and music. It is a student-led programme, although it is impossible to come to life without the constant support from the Performing Arts, Events and Media Departments of the school. The event encourages creative Khaitanians to be self-confident and to love and pursue their fields of interest. The event is supported by the excitement and curiosity of the young aspirants. The audience witnesses breath-taking dance, music and theatre performances throughout the week via YouTube Live.
