JOSH-E-UMANG

Since 2020, we have been conducting cultural programming in partnership with the Public Affairs Section, Department of State, US Embassy, for the American Center New Delhi. We have conducted over 40 events, which have been streamed on social media to thousands of viewers. We have hosted musicians such as Susmit Bose, BollyJazz, Tetseo Sisters, Bawari Basanti, Sanjay Mandol Group, and Niazi Nizami Brothers. We have hosted dancers such as Justin McCarthy, Vikram Iyengar, and Priti Patel and storytellers such as Kapil Pandey and Deeptha Vivekanand. Additionally, we have conducted dramatized readings with various Delhi University college dramatics societies. Our overarching goal for the events is to foster the development of bilateral ties, with a specific focus on shared values, and to encourage youth engagement in Delhi with the American Center Library.
