Brewing a conversation around sustainability
Farm-to-cup coffee brand Maverick & Farmer and zero-waste personal care brand Bare Necessities will collaborate on “Let’s Brew Together!” It’s planned as a coffee-fuelled afternoon of conversation between the founders of the two brands, Ashish D’abreo and Sahar Mansoor, and like-minded individuals. There will be discussions on free-waste living, tips and tricks, followed by a workshop on how to make your very own scrub with coffee waste. The event will be held at the Maverick & Farmer Café, Gangadhar Chetty Road, Sivanchetti Gardens, Ulsoor, Bengaluru, on 11 June from 3-4pm. The cost of the event, which includes refreshments, is ₹500. To register, visit https://barenecessities.in/products/lets-brew-together-sustainably

Raise a toast with gin

Building a story within the frame
Dhoomimal Gallery, in collaboration with Gallerie Splash, is presenting a solo show of Ashok Bhowmick’s paintings. From monochromes in 1974 to the use of bright solid backdrops with cross-hatched figures from 2002, his art has come a long way. “I wish my paintings would talk to the viewer as an intimate friend and not as a philosopher in the guise of a painter,” notes Bhowmick. “I do not believe in building a story outside the frame of a painting.” At Dhoomimal Gallery, Delhi, till 9 July
