India Fest 2013, Memphis

It's impossible to discern India Fest's biggest draw—there are simply too many attractions to judge. At the bazaar, for example, Indian music, food, artwork, fashion, and literature create a colorful experience for even the most casual visitor. A talent show gives locals the chance to display their skills in Indian dance and music, and food demonstrations invite guests to learn how to prepare Indian recipes themselves. There's also a space for kids, where youngsters can listen to traditional Indian stories and get henna tattoos.
