Dear Friends,

The Asian American Association of New Mexico (AAANM) and Kalakriti Dance
Company are proud to be presenting Kaladarpanam: An Offering of Art to
the Albuquerque community on July 18, 2009. AAANM is a non-profit
organization that works to promote and preserve the diverse cultural
customs and heritage of the Asian communities in NM, contribute to the
better social well-being of the Asian communities in NM, and promote and
support the economic progress of the Asian communities in NM.

In support of its mission objective to promote and preserve the cultural
customs and heritage of the Asian communities in NM, the AAANM
identified a goal of establishing an Asian American Cultural Center in
the International District. The Asian American communities as well as
the local neighborhood communities in and around the International
District strongly support such a physical facility and look forward to
using these unique facilities on a daily basis for recreation,
education, training, performing arts, and health. 

Kala Darpanam: An Offering of Art, is the first major fund raiser event
in support of the Asian American Cultural Center. The event is scheduled
for July 18, 2009 at the Rodey Theater (UNM), from 6-8pm. “Kala Darpanam”
is a spectacular presentation of Bharatanatyam, one of the most
celebrated traditional dance forms from India that has its roots going
back to more than 2500 years. It is based on the ancient treatise of
dance “Natya Shastra”: pure dance, facial expressions and a presentation
of combined pure dance and facial expressions. The acclaimed artists,
Lonika Majithia and Anita Rao, both of the Kalakriti Dance Company, will
astound you with their mesmerizing and energetic presentation of
Bharatanatyam dances.
Please find the event flyer attached to this email. We sincerely hope
you can attend the event and show your support for the Asian American
Cultural Center. If you have any questions please contact either Bobbi
Nobles or Lonika Majithia.

Sincerely,

Bobbi Nobles
