SALT LAKE, U.S., MAY 5, 2010: For anyone who has ever been curious about the culture and customs of India, here’s a chance for a hands-on activity called “Paint and Learn About India” that’s also a fundraiser for the soon-to-be completed India Cultural Center next to the Sri Ganesha Hindu Temple.
Participants will hear about Indian weddings, festivals, languages, food, music and transportation. The program will give people a better understanding of what life is like in India, said Resham Shah, a center volunteer.
There are about 5,000 Indian families along the Wasatch Front, said Utah businessman Dinesh Patel, who has been at the forefront of fundraising for the center.
