Saturday, April 3, 3pm - Sattriya, The Classical Dance of Assam

Arshiya Sethi, Program Director at the Habitat Center, New Delhi, India,
currently a Fulbright Scholar in residence at Lincoln Center, will give an
illustrated lecture on the newly recognized classical Indian dance style 
Sattriya.

Developing over a period of five hundred years in Vaishnav monasteries in
Assam, a state in North-East India, Sattriya was virtually unknown outside 
of Assam.  The Sangeet Natak Akademi, India's National Arts Academy, has just
designated Sattriya as a classical dance style.  Ms. Sethi's lecture will 
include video footage. Her lecture will be given on Saturday, April 3 at 3pm 
in the Bruno Walter Auditorium at the New York Public Library of the Performing 
Arts at Lincoln Center, 40 Lincoln Center Plaza.  212-870-1630.  Recorded program
information 212-642-0142.  Admission is free and open to the public. Seating 
is unreserved.
