From the microcosm to the macrocosm, India vibrates with a sensory intensity. Saturated colors pulsate in a frequently uproarious visual environment, and a full-spectrum experience of life is palpably perceptible almost anywhere you look. When seen through the eyes of the heart, India's beauty can enrapture the soul.

Lovingly compiled from 7000 photographs documenting Libana's transformative three-week North Indian tour of performing, teaching and cultural connection last February, our new full color 12x13inch art calendar is dedicated to the peaceful spirit, determined strength, abundant creativity and radiant dignity of India's nearly 600 million women.

In Women of India, each month offers a glimpse into a single moment of a woman's life within this profoundly moving and delightfully cacophonous culture. A large photographic portrait of a woman encountered on our journey is artistically complimented with colorful detail images, a photograph of Libana members and extended family in connection with the people and culture of India, previous and next month mini-calendars, important days of note and major holidays of various world faiths--all printed with soy based ink on glossy, environmentally friendly recycled paper.

With the holiday season coming up, we encourage you to have your gift list include a copy of this inspiring and soul-expanding calendar for everyone you know and love! By sharing Libana's adventure to India with your family, friends and colleagues, your purchase supports Libana's continuing artistic and cultural mission.
