[ALOCHONA] One World, Many Voices: A Celebration of World Languages [1 Attachment]

[Attachment(s) from nafrin@yahoo.com included below]

Join Drishtipat DC for a cultural extravaganza on February 21, to celebrate UN International Mother Language Day! Come enjoy an evening of music and colorful dance performances from around the world – traditional Bangladeshi dances, Indian melodies, Native-American songs, music from the Andes, belly dancing, tango and more. 


According to the National Geographic, every 14 days, a language dies. At least half of the world's languages are projected to disappear this century. Through this multi-cultural event we will celebrate the world's 7,000 languages and highlight the need for language preservation.

Each year our event grows bigger and better, so don't miss out on this entertaining cultural journey around the world!
