the generosity of the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, and features
Sunny Jain - drums/dhol, Marc Cary - piano/keys, Steve Welsh -
saxophones/effects, Gary Wang - bass, Samita Sinha - vocals, and Achyut
Joshi - vocals

This event is co-sponsored by SAKHI for South Asian Women and Breakthrough. All proceeds will be donated to both organizations.
