Pawa Salon XLI on ‘Packaging The Actor to Succeed’

The acting scene has not been taken seriously by the general public and actors have fallen into these stereotypes and bought them. Pawa 254’s Salon in collaboration with the Kenya Actors’ Guild seeks to change this situation by talking about branding to artistes.
Entrance is free.
Guest speakers are Ian Mbugua and Milicent Ogutu
Sarnervesh - Destiny by Maral Bolouri
Kuona Trust
Starts 6pm
From the word destiny in Farsi comes ‘Sarnevesht’, Maral Bolouri’s first solo exhibition in Kenya. Provocative ink-works, photocopy transfers, drawings and a short video installation all convey her aversion to the gender discrimination she has observed. Delving in to law and tradition in various cultures, Bolouri explores the effects that religious texts have on the treatment of women, from the unreasonable demands made of them to the inequality in autonomy between the sexes.
