South Asian Festival Today!

Looking for something fun to do this afternoon?

Why not join us for some dazzling Indian dancing, a discussion with a contemporary Sri Lankan author, and some beautiful henna designs?

At 1 PM, we'll be having Ekakshara Dance Creations take the stage, in a mix of classic and modern Indian dance.

Here they are performing a traditional lamp dance at a previous event:
 
Looks amazing! Come and check them out in person today!

Right after, at 2 PM, we've got author Koom Kankesan, along with musicians Dylan and Anupa, to talk about his new book, and share cultural Tamil tales.

His first book, The Panic Button, is available on hold, and you can place a pre-order hold on his latest book, the Rajapaksa Stories.

To end off the festival, around 3 PM, kids and ladies can get a simple henna design on their hands from one of our talented henna artists. Got young boys who aren't interested in getting their hands decorated? Not a problem! Kids aged 13 and under can work on their own unique designs with crayons and markers. Three top artists will be selected to win prizes!
