Like the Young Sprout Unfolding touched by the First Dew drop in Spring, and growing into a huge tree, Ankur started from a small initiative, and has grown into a huge community bringing the Bengalis' of Sacramento and Northern California under it's shade.
However, we are not here to rest. We tirelessly engage in social, cultural, developmental, and fun activities throughout the year. We are today the Flag-Bearer of Bengali Community from "Epar and Opar" Bangla, recognized by the local city administration, and a registered Non-Profit, under section A 501(c), with tax advantage.
Want to know about our major events? Want to participate? Want to enjoy the Pujo, Holi, Bangla Scool? Want to perform, or let your budding youngster take the stage? Want to just chill with a bunch of amazing people, and dive on a gastronomic adventure? Here you go... join us and attend some or all of the following activities, and all the events under "event" section in menu.
In Bengal and India there are more occasions than the number of months in a year ~ বারো মাসে তেরো পার্বণ !
