IAGB Presents: Discover India Series
The Indian Association of Greater Boston (IAGB) is delighted to continue our Discover India initiative with a unique cultural experience, presented in collaboration with Volunteering For Seniors Inc.
Discover India: Pehnawa – Weaves of India
Textiles in India are more than fabric—they carry history, identity, craftsmanship, and stories passed down through generations. This special session brings those stories to life through learning, visuals, and meaningful conversation.
Date: May 19
Time: 1:00 – 3:00 PM
Venue: Sharon Community Center
This enriching afternoon is open to all. We invite our community to explore the beauty, diversity, and cultural significance of Indian weaves.
Please see the attached flyer for additional details.
We look forward to welcoming you!

IAGB goes to The State House
It’s TODAY! Join Us for a Historic Weekend of Pride, Culture & Unity – this Aug 15!
Dear Community members, friends and well-wishers,
My joy knows no bound as I share this email with you! We, at IAGB, have a power-packed weekend ahead, one that celebrates both our heritage and our shared spirit of unity!
Friday, August 15, 2025 – A Historic “First” Flag Raising for IAGB at the MA State House!
It is with immense pride and joy that I share this milestone with you!
For the first time in IAGB’s history, we will raise the Indian Flag inside the Massachusetts State House, alongside the U.S. Flag – a powerful tribute to our heritage and our shared identity as Indian Americans.
This is more than a ceremony. It is a celebration of our journey, a testament to our community’s perseverance, and a heartfelt expression of true patriotism: inclusive, respectful, and united in spirit.
