Threads That Bind
Threads That Bind celebrates the rich craft traditions and Heritage of India. And the atmosphere created by them is not only intimate but also super festive.

Plus, one last incentive to definitely go for this festival is the fact that the proceeds from their event go to the Delhi Society for the Welfare of Special Children & All Creatures Great & Small, an animal Shelter run by Anjali Gopalan of Naz Foundation.
