Penn State’s Association for India’s Development (AID) — a student-run organization of volunteers — will host a “Taste of India” food festival this upcoming weekend.
The event will take place from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Saturday at Mount Nittany Middle School.
Over 15 traditional Indian dishes and drinks will be featured at the event, including rajma (a hearty bean curry), sambar (a veggie-lentil stew) and masala chai tea (a spiced milk tea).
Marking its 25th anniversary, the annual festival also will include live music and activities.
The event is designed to help raise money for AID’s mission of funding multiple social causes in India such as literacy, women’s empowerment and post-trauma rehabilitation following national disasters.
Tickets can be purchased here. Admission is $20 for adults, $15 for students, and $10 for children aged 5 to 12. Donations to AID are also accepted when purchasing tickets.
