While further communication is coming up with the details, we are now seeking Expression of Interest (EOI) from all community members (across all age groups) interested to participate in this festive event in the following categories:

– Recitation

– Master of ceremonies (MC)
– Anything else that may be relevant for an event such as this
“বাংলা বর্ষবরণ” (পহেলা বৈশাখ) is a celebration of Bengali heritage and culture, a tradition unblemished by modernity. It asks that no matter where we are, we should seek to gather, reflect, and celebrate the dawn of a promising New Year. Irrespective of all the barriers and differences, it is the time for all of us to connect to each other, celebrate and spread the message of love and hope. So, please drop us an email expressing your interest with your contact detail and what you would like to perform in this special occasion to make this event memorable. We will then contact you and discuss all possibilities.
