Prepare to be spellbound by storyteller Gauri Raje will enthrall us with traditional stories of women from India and Scotland. Weaving wonderful tales alongside Gauri will be writers from the Muslim Women’s Creative Writing Group. A not-to-be-missed lunchtime treat!

Gauri’s storytelling will be mainly in English, with some phrases in Gujarati and Urdu.

Gauri Raje is an anthropologist and storyteller who performs regularly in the UK and India. Some of her performance projects include: ‘East of the Sun, West of the Moon’ a collection of stories for adults from around the world translated and told in 3 different Indian languages; ‘Badlands’, a storytelling of folk stories of the land and rivers of central India; and ‘Tales of Exile and Sanctuary’, stories from around the world exploring themes of exile. She is currently working with biographical and traditional stories of South Asian migrants to the West of Scotland with AwazFM, a South Asian radio station in Glasgow.
