Dear Community Members:
 
On behalf of EKTARA, we are also humbly requesting you to add an extra dimension to the festivities, if possible by wearing traditional folk attires (panjabi, sari, gamcha, etc.) to the festival.  These may (but not limited to) reflect the traditional "gerua" or yellow colors of Bangladeshi folk heritage.
 
Please be advised that our special presentation "MOHAJONER NAO" will start at the very beginning of our event.  So please be on time (Folk Festival will open at sharp 6:30PM) to experience the Folk legend Baul Somrat Shah Abdul Karim's mystical journey into the world of folk music through "MOHAJONER NAO"
