Welcome to Aahaarya, Inc. We have been supporting cultural art since 1972, with the object of propogating Indian classical dance and music in the western culture. Since then we have been deeply deeply involed in stage performances and organizing. Until recently we planned, organized, coordinated and setup travel schedules of great world known artists from India who are well known classical dancers and musicians. Finally an organization was formed as a non-profit and carry the same objectives under the banner of Aahaarya, Inc. This organization is now directing its attention to promote classical forms of dance and music among the youths. Here are some of the highlights on past sponsors.
