The Happy Valley Indian Performing Arts Festival will take place from April 7 to 9 in the HUB. The event will feature six different styles of dance, as well as performances by six notable artists.

The show includes Indian dance forms such as Kathuk and Odissi, among others. There will also be a variety of vocal performances. The Society for Indian Music and Arts and Nritya will sponsor the event — the two organizations aim to preserve traditional Indian dance, as well as promote the style throughout the State College community.

Students can purchase tickets for $4 per day and general admission tickets will cost $4.99. If you have any further questions about ticket sales, feel free to contact sima.sandesh@gmail.com or nritya.psu@gmail.com.

The event is open to everyone in the Penn State community. For more information on the specific schedule of performances, check out the event Facebook page.
