Experience the Indian art forms Music, Movement and Mudras by at least 1000+ people. Feedback surveys from both artists and audience.

Measurable Outcome(s)

For the first time in the festival history, we were able to fund and bring in a professional band from out of town, which was very well received by the community. Also, we were able to set a bigger stage to accommodate a large and unique folk/classical Kathakali performance.
