Peerbagh is a young nonprofit committed to diversifying bookshelves and developing storytellers. It primarily spotlights South-Asian storytelling and builds children's creative confidence through storytelling workshops, events, toolkits, and activity books.

The Varta Storytelling Festival was inaugurated in Dehradun in August 2023, and the Varta event went to Austin, TX, in March 2024.

The Festival will come to Ann Arbor on October 13 with the support of the Ann Arbor District Library, the Michigan Asian American Pacific Islander Affairs Commission, and CSAS.
