Arangetram
Hello Art Lovers,
I will be performing Arangetram on September 23th 2023 at 6:00pm. Venue: Troy High School in Troy, Michigan, United States,48084.
Arangetram is the debut on-stage performance of a student where RKDA students showcase their talent cultured and practiced over the years in one event. Some consider this as a culmination of all the hard work they put in over the years learning the dance form. At RKDA, students collect donations in the form of tickets to the performance from relatives and friends etc. Students donate this money raised to a charitable organization thereby starting philanthropic work in highschool which is very useful to college applications.

Minimum ticket price is $25 but you can always use other option to contribute more/less than that.*Half of the proceedings collected will be donated to “Big Brother Big Sister” Organization other half will be donated to Spandana govt organization for challenged kids,India*
