For more than 20 years the Asian Cultural Association has been thrilling audiences with wondrous films, beautiful exhibits of sculpture, photography, and traditional crafts; concerts featuring the exotic sounds of Indian instruments, and teaching children of Central Florida about the fascinating culture of the subcontinent.
ACA presents in-class lectures, demonstrations, and other smaller intensive programs in kindergarten through high school in Central Florida. Programs like the India Annual Arts Day, where students at Heathrow Elementary in Lake Mary, Florida are exposed to various aspects of Indian life – clothing, languages, games, arts and culture. This is done in an interactive and fun environment and in-class lecture demonstrations by ACA visiting artists. ACA also schedules workshops by master artists at local colleges and universities featuring guest artists that ACA brings to Central Florida for concerts and performances. These workshops encourage students to pursue and study these ancient art forms and to promote dialogue about Western and Eastern musical styles.
