Pongal - Harvest Festival 2026

---

 As the milk boils freely over the pot, family members shout out happily “Pongalo Pongal”! After the Pongal is offered to the Sun God, they would feast on several Pongal dishes that are prepared especially for the day  

 Art exhibitions serve as a platform for artists to present their work, gain visibility, and engage with audiences. They also offer art lovers the opportunity to experience new ideas, explore different cultures, and deepen their appreciation for the arts.  

 Appreciation Award ceremonies often include the presentation of awards, certificates, or mementos, along with speeches highlighting the recipients’ efforts and impact. Appreciation Award Ceremonies help motivate participants, strengthen community bonds, and encourage continued excellence by acknowledging hard work and positive influence 

 Cultural Activities at the Pongal Festival are an integral part of the celebrations, showcasing the vibrant traditions and community spirit that define this harvest festival.  This includes different dance performances.

  Arts workshops offer hands-on creative experiences in various mediums like painting, drawing etc
