The Yaksha Showcase: An Immersive Exhibit

The Yaksha Showcase: An Immersive Exhibit

Dates: June 26 – July 5, 2025

Time: 11:00 AM – 7:00 PM

Session Duration: 25 minutes

Location: EarthLab Club, 119 Shivam Vihar, Jakhan, Dehradun

Step Into a Living Myth

Something has been stirring all summer… and now, the Yaksha awakens.

The Yaksha Showcase is the culminating exhibit of EarthLab Club’s 21-day Young Creators Summer Programme — YAKSHA. Over three weeks, children aged 7–16 have collaborated with visionary mentors to co-create an immersive storyworld inspired by the myth of the Yaksha of Bandarpunch and the threatened river Tons.

This isn’t just an exhibition. It’s a multi-sensory experience where projection, interactive tech, sound, story, and sculpture come alive — imagined by young creators, and built with their hands, voices, and ideas.

A Myth Reborn — In Light, Sound, and Movement

Guided by a team of artists, technologists, and educators —

Ansh Kumar (Installations & Lead Artist),

Pratiksha Chauhan (Creative Design & Set Building),

Sai K. Mulpuru (Technology),

Yash Nath Jha (Sound),

Prashant Nawani (Words),

and curated by Naved Farooqui —the Yaksha showcase brings together the disciplines of art, ecology, and imagination.

Visitors will witness:

  • Interactive Tech Installations inspired by environmental themes — from poaching to pollution
  • Immersive Set Designs made from scrap and recycled materials with the support of Waste Warriors
  • Sonic Storytelling where the myth is retold through the voices, beats, and soundscapes created by children
  • Projection Mapping & Visual Design animating myths and memories
  • Poetry, Riddles & Myth Cards — ways to think, reflect, and play inside the story

Why Visit?

Because this is what the future of learning looks like:

Hands-on. Imaginative. Ecological. Technological.

The Yaksha Showcase is:

  • A living museum built by young creators, for the community
  • A sensory journey into storytelling through art, tech, and sound
  • A call to reimagine education through collaboration, play, and purpose

It’s a story of myth and memory, nature and noise, creativity and care.

Join Us

Come walk through forests made of scrap, touch rivers made of light, and listen to songs made of soil, wind, and voice at the Yaksha Showcase.

This summer, step into a story that belongs to all of us.

Limited slots per session. RSVP recommended.
