So Sari!

ARTafterDARK is the Honolulu Academy of Arts' monthly art party organized by a dynamic group of young volunteers dedicated to exploring the arts

WHEN: July 25, 6 - 9 PM 2008
WHERE: Honolulu Academy of Arts

ARTafterDARK is excited to present DJ Rekha, the queen of bhangra in New York City. She's the mastermind behind SOB's long-running weekly Basement Bhangra in Manhattan.

It will be a sultry subcontinental night with:

• The courtyards each featuring an element of major Indian holidays such as Diwali and Onam. Guests get a chance to be creative with flowers by helping to make a pukalam.

• A street market with "vendors" such as a chaiwalla displaying spices, a henna artist, a general store selling snacks such as Bombay Mix. Mmmm.

• A zip tour of the Academy's stellar Jhamandas Watumull Gallery of Indian Art. Don't miss the impressive Nandi's Head, the massive bull that transports Shiva.

• Indian cuisine by E&O Trading Co.

Many thanks to Red Circle and HonBlue who provided airfare and to design shop
