In collaboration with various institutions, entrepreneurs, artists, photographers, and students from each state of North East India, the successful 45-day online carnival was celebrated through a series of infographics, videos, live conversations, and various workshops promoted on Jaya He’s Instagram and Facebook platforms.
The live sessions ranged from storytelling sessions of folk stories from North East India, accompanied by craft-making sessions to Live Insta conversations with expert resources like young entrepreneurs and the student community which hailed from North East India. The digital campaign was specially designed and curated in such a way that by the end of the campaign, the viewer was well-informed about the North Eastern culture.
Since its launch in 2017, CSMIA’s Jaya He Museum has undertaken several initiatives to introduce passengers to the various cultures of India. In 2019, the museum launched ‘Paaoolkhuna – Imprints of Maharashtra’, a 75 day airport contemporary carnival highlighting the lesser known art and rich heritage of Maharashtra. This year, despite the impact of the pandemic, CSMIA brought to life the magnificent culture and heritage of these states for enjoyment by passengers from the comfort of their homes.
