<div>About the Festival

</div>

<div>The Garden of Dance honors the visionary Smt. Rukmini Devi Arundale, who transformed Bharatanatyam into a globally revered art form with her dedication to beauty, discipline, compassion, and artistic integrity.

</div>

<div>This is New York City’s first and only Indian Classical Dance Festival dedicated exclusively to Rukmini Devi Arundale, her beloved Kalakshetra Foundation, and her ideals:

</div>

<div>Education without fear, art without vulgarity, and beauty without cruelty.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Unity Through Dance

</div>

<div>Organized by Kalakshetra alumni Damir Tasmagambetov &amp; Tatyana Popova, the festival celebrates art as a pathway to unity, bringing together artists and audiences across cultures in the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam—“The world is one family.”
