World Culture Day: Hello India!
Saturday, March 29
11am - 4pm
The art and culture, diverse spiritual practices, “Bollywood” films, and spicy foods of India, are captivating the interests and palates of a rapidly increasing international audience. Come to "Hello India!" to discover this complex and diverse country. Enjoy classical and folk dances from around India, "Bollywood" films, an Indian fashion show, henna demonstrations, arts and crafts, and more. Find out about India's ancient Harappan civilization—as well as her contemporary call-centers, an aspect of the country's changing economics. Learn how to make 'garam masala' and simple Indian meals, and plan to leave relaxed, having participated in an Indian yoga workshop! The day is co-sponsored by the Consulate of India in New York, the University of Pennsylvania's South Asia Center, South Asian Society; the Wharton India Club; Camden County College; Bhartiya Cultural Center; and the Indian Association of South Jersey.
Free with Museum admission donation. Information: 215/898-4890.
