Welcome to EarthLab Club’s Young Creators Summer Programme 2025

EarthLab Club’s Young Creators Summer Programme 2025 – The Yaksha

At The Yaksha, your child doesn’t just learn—they build, invent, question, and create.

Inspired by the mythical guardians of the natural world, this 15-day programme invites students aged 7 to 17 to imagine and design a world where rivers whisper, forests respond, and every sound tells a story. Together, we’ll bring to life an interactive exhibit powered by light, sound, tech, and narrative—designed by the kids themselves.

Programme Breakdown: Modules of Imagination

The Yaksha is designed as four focused, skill-building modules—each led by field experts—woven into the larger world-building experience. Alongside these, the Set Design Lab runs throughout the programme and is exclusive to full-programme participants.

•  STORYTELLING LAB (2 days)

Under the guidance of story mentors, students learn how to build narratives that are personal, mythic, and immersive.

• VISUAL DESIGN LAB (4 days)

With Ansh Kumar (Installation & Light Artist), students dive into environmental art, spatial lighting, and projection mapping.

•  TECH LAB (4 days)

Led by Sai Krishna, this module teaches creative coding, sensor-triggered interactions, kinetic sculpture, and basic robotics to design responsive installations.

• MUSIC & MEDIA LAB (4 days)

Mentored by Yash Nath Jha, Prashant Nawani, and Naved Farooqui, this module focuses on field recordings, ambient soundscapes, lyrical exploration, and media production.

• SET DESIGN LAB (Ongoing)

This parallel track runs through the entire 15-day programme. Participants will work with Pratikhsa Chauhan, Ansh and Sai to co-build a live exhibit space—walls, walkways, installations, and interactive triggers—that becomes the canvas for The Yaksha. Only available to full-programme students.

A World They Can Step Into

The final exhibit is designed like a real-life educational escape room where each participant is given a “Yaksha Card” and completes elemental quests around Air, Water, and Earth. Unlock stories, earn powers, and build a living world that breathes myth and mirrors our future.
