Time: 8 a.m. - 5 p.m.
Venue: The participants are expected to meet at Gulshan 2 intersection by 8.30 a.m., from where a Guide Tour vehicle will transfer them to the boat.

Through completing the attunement process of Usui Reiki Method level 1, a practitioner is expected to unite their energy body with Universal Source energy and remain a Reiki healer for life. They can use this infinite flow of healing energy to heal all humans, plants, animals and even childhood traumas, emotional scars and physical spaces.
The workshop will be held on a gentle boat ride down the Shitalakshya River organised by the Guide Tours ltd.
The course fee for this program is Tk 4000, and includes training manuals, simple lunch on the boat (vegetarian), pickup/drop off from Gulshan 2 meeting point to the boat, meditation mats for use, attunements, certification, and post Reiki continued support from the Reiki instructor.

JOLOJ 2, A GROUP PAINTING EXHIBITION
Date: 17-31 December, 2016
Venue: La Galerie, Alliance Francaise
Joloj 2 (Aquatic 2) is the second edition of the 2015 exhibition, Joloj and features artists Bishan Bhakta, Golam Moshiur Rahman Choudhury, Md. Al-Akhir Sarkar, and Sadek Ahmed.
The artists feel - water, in Bangladesh, is ubiquitous. To the untrained eye, layers and layers of bricks and concrete, man-made mundane monuments of melancholy may seem arid or "waterless", but beneath it all, water flows, cascades, swirls and streams and calls out to every person — to wet their feet in it. Even the indolent ones cannot help but respond to that call when rainy season happens, when a limpid pond as if by magic emerges amid greenery, or when thousands and thousands of rivers of Bangladesh make it almost impossible to not embrace water and its beauty.
