We at Helm of Eight believe in the coming together of things that belong and are thrilled to invite you to our Flagship event - Jungle in the City. Jungle in the City brings together the creatures of the city with the beings of the forest.

With equal participation from the Adivasis, Featured Artists, Facilitators and Humans of Bombay, this day will be experienced in shared oneness of all with nature. We request all participants and attendees to be respectful and conscious of this. The day will lead us through 3 parts of the forest - A nature trail, Chota Kashmir (park) and the Amphitheatre.

HELM OF EIGHT

Helm of Eight is a labour of mind and heart, a culmination and a beginning of experiences.


We are a Hybrid Incubator and Community Centre located in Mumbai (Andheri West). The story behind the Helm is rooted in the cross-pollination of Knowledge, Art, Self Development, Human Resource Development, Enterprise, Social Impact and Technology. Human-centricity is at the core of all our work and the thread that ties them together.
We are dedicated to creating experiences to step-in and go beyond the everyday, and are constantly looking to challenge boundaries and experiment with the cross-section of these domains.

Who can come to this event?

Simple answer: Everyone. This day is for you, whoever you are, wherever you’re from. If you are interested in Creative Arts, Nature, Stories and People, then you belong here. This event is open to all ages and individuals from all backgrounds. This event is also open to pets and children. Please ensure both are human friendly and don’t bite! We suggest a leash for pets considering it’s a forest.
Please make sure to carry scoopers/newspaper to clean up their business so that nobody steps on any surprises.

Will there be insects in the forest? What should I wear?

We suggest that all attendees wear closed shoes (sports shoes might be best), and full pants to avoid mosquito bites. We will keep Odomos for you :)
