Sanskriti Durga Puja 2013 Fremont CA California USA

Sanskriti Durga Puja 2013 Fremont CA California USA 

Dear Well Wisher, 

This is about that time of the year. Durga Puja is just round the corner. Sanskriti's Annual Festival is typically merged with Durga Puja. Because of our Music Festival  on September 7, we are somewhat late in preparation of the Annual Festival. However, we had been able to put together the regular events and the website is now updated with most of the information.

Event: Annual Festival and Durga Puja 2013

Date: October 5 and 6, 2013

Venue: Centerville Junior High School

Highlights of the event:

• Durga Puja. Please checkout the Puja schedule. 
• Community Cultural Event: Ever since we started this event, the demand for this is consistently growing for obvious reason. It is truly a platform for the budding artists of the community. More than hundred participants participate each year in various categories. Slots tend to fill up fast. Please register your participants as early as possible. Details can be found on our website -www.sanskriti.org
• Invited artists from the community: Each year we also invite accomplished artists from the local community. These artists have one thing in common. They are not professional musicians but nurture the passion for music in them.
• Musical Extravaganza by Parnava Bannerjee (Kolkata). Parnava is bound to entertain you with his entertaining music - Bengali and Hindi both. Parnava is the winner of Zee TV Golden Voice 2006 and is a regular performer in Tara Muzik, ZeeTV, ETVetc. He has performed many times in USA before but not in the Bay Area. Please see the detail on our web site. You can find many of his performance clips in Youtube.

We look forward to see you during the Annual Festival and Durga Puja. Your support is earnestly solicited for us to be able to continue with the community facing activities.

Sincerely,

Sanskriti Annual Festival Committee,
