The Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha on Friday revealed a list of activities that will be hosted in celebration of the arrival of Indians to Guyana.
As the list of activities kick off on May 1, Atif Aslam is said to perform alongside other Guyanese artistes, drummers and dancers in concert at the National Stadium.
During the month-long celebration, a special Ramayan Festival will be held at the Oceanview Mandir Compound, West Coast Demerara, on May 5, celebrating the Ramayan traditions brought by foreparents to Guyana.
In addition, there will be cultural events featuring outstanding Guyanese artistes at the Tain Campus, Berbice, and Bath Community Centre Ground, West Berbice, on May 4; and at the Anna Regina Mandir, Essequibo and Better Hope Mandir, ECD on May 5.
In mid-May, the East Berbice Praant of the Sabha will host a special lecture and evening of Taan.
All proceeds from the concert will go towards the Dharmic Rama Krishna School Expansion project which will involve the construction of a new secondary school and additional primary facilities.
