Fancy an exhibition where you get to interact informally with the artist? This studio space is organising an event where art enthusiasts can discuss anything with the artist, right from questions about a certain piece to their journey to becoming an artist.

"It's a great opportunity for art fans to experience art more personally and it helps artists get direct feedback. It also helps their work and encourages the art community in general," says Saloni Doshi, the founder and director of Space 118.

Anirudh Acharya, Abhinav Kakkar and Meenakshi Nihalani are among the eight young artists who will give you a peek into their finished artworks along with works in progress. The artworks could range from animation, sculpting to printmaking and more.

ON June 2, 2 pm to 8 pm
AT Space 118, Wadibunder Road, Mazagaon.
