It all started on a University Campus far
away, many years ago, on the 50th Anniversary of India’s Independence…
A merry band of Indian Faculty Members from
The University of Western Ontario assembled together to commemorate
the occasion, and to put on a cultural
evening that would celebrate India and
provide the wider community with a peak into
the Indian traditions of their Performing
Arts.
From this seminal event, a small subset of
the original organizing group decided that
what London needed was a regular diet of
Indian culture – Arts, Classical Vocal &
Instrumental Music and exposure to the
breadth and depth of the multitude of Indian
Dance Forms.
With those intentions in mind, an entity was
born,
with a ‘raison d’etre’ of providing a window
into the millennia old artistic and cultural
tradition of India. That entity,
has
since been run and managed entirely by a small core group of
like minded volunteers.
That organization is...
Kala Manjari – “A Bouquet of the
Arts”
