Durga Puja and Sharod Mela 2015
We are hyper excited to announce our Durga Puja 2015 with a BIGGER space in the Gateway Hall @Santa Clara Fairgrounds. We are also excited to share an exclusive, first-time in the bay area, chance to see Bengali singing sensation Rupam Islam and his band Fossils in action!
Like all previous years, we promise to bring you the tradition and atmosphere of a traditional Bengali Durga Puja that will bring back memories of your childhood. There is no entry fee to the fairgrounds, so bring all your friends and family to enjoy the five days of worship, fun and frolic (and not to forget, some shopping and eating out!)
Plenty of parking is available at the fairground. The fairground is very conveniently located right off of 101 and 87.
We pride ourselves in bringing you evenings filled with entertainment. We will publish the program details soon on our website. If you are interested in participating in our cultural program, please contact us in our facebook page.
Like all previous years, the stalls will be stacked with Jewelry, accessories, books, DVDs and other interesting items. Buy the Sharodiya magazines first from our stalls starting from Oct 18th evening.
Pashchimi is also inviting volunteers for our major puja activities. If you are interested, please write to us at [email protected].
Please spread the word, invite your friends to the event.
