Join ANFS Studio and guest artist Sharmila (Boond Art) for a relaxing, creative evening of dot mandala painting!
Whether you want to honor a cultural tradition, celebrate a beloved sibling, or make a meaningful bracelet for a close
friend, this hands-on workshop is open to everyone (ages 8+).
✨ What is a Rakhi?
In Indian tradition, a Rakhi is a decorative, hand-tied wristband given during Raksha Bandhan—a festive holiday dedicated to celebrating the bond between brothers, sisters, and loved ones.
Tying a Rakhi is a heartfelt gesture of love, care, and a promise of mutual protection.
Today, this tradition transcends borders: it is a beautiful way to show appreciation for brothers, sisters, cousins, or best friends who feel like family.
