Where Tradition Meets Tomorrow 10th anniversary celebration

An immersive evening for the five senses

Chicago ,   Illinois

The evening will honor tradition and innovation in South Asian performing arts that strive to unite culture, community, and creativity. Performances will take place throughout the venue, with appetizers and drinks available as guests make their way through the event space. The evening will showcase dance that combines jazz, hip-hop, and Bharatanatyam, as well as live folk and classical music. Performers will include past collaborators—including Ashwaty Chennat, Shalaka Kulkarni, and Kinnari Vora—and artists new to Mandala, including this spring’s artist-in-residence, multi-genre dancer-choreographer Amber Mehta, who grew up and studied dance in the Chicago area. Event co-chairs are Mila Beryozkin and Shalini Sawhney. No COVID-related requirements or restrictions at this time.... Show More
