Creative Arts Safaris began as Indian Adventures' Tactile Textile Tours developed by Fiona Wright and Kanhaiya Lal [Parveen to his mates] to share their enthusiasm for the arts and culture of Northern India through fully escorted small-group tours focusing on textiles and culture. This idea has grown into the Creative Arts Safaris range of tours. We embrace the creative arts - our tours range from textiles, drawing and sketching journeys to photography and the tasty and sustaining pursuit of good cooking. Our tours travel to exotic locations for the sheer pleasure of being there, the opportunity to soak up rich cultural experiences, and because we believe that moving away from everyday life to somewhere a little magical will help you refresh and unlock your own creative spring. The tours are really a workshop lead by a tutor and special parts of the world form the classroom. Each tour is fully escorted by a host so the tutor and group have plenty of opportunity to soak up the experience, discuss their observations and work on their creative interests as the journey unfolds. Our tours take advantage of exotic locations, utilizing comfortable accommodation full of character [always with private western style bathrooms] In India we favour family run heritage hotels- a chance to live in the Zenana or women's quarters of a centuries old fort or perhaps our own palace...[our visits help with the upkeep of these antique jewels], in other places we look for arty, interesting areas to stay. You are most welcome to join us. |
