Friends, Herewith the text of the attachment to Heta Pandit's message to me. It is a communique from the Press and Publicity Officer of the Goa Heritage Action Group. Jorge ==================== November 5, 2002 Dear Sir, GOA HERITAGE FESTIVAL 2002, CAMPAL HERITAGE PRECINCT, CAMPAL, PANAJI, GOA 26TH-27TH NOVEMBER 2002 10 A.M. TO 9.P.M. The Goa Heritage Action Group and its festival partners Panjim Municipal Council and the Department of Tourism, Government of Goa is proud to announce the holding of the second Goa Heritage Festival on 26th-27th November 2002. You will recall having attended the Festival at the Goa Kala Academy last year. This year we are holding the festival against the backdrop of the beautiful Indian Art Deco residential bungalows at Campal, Panaji in the lanes of the heritage precinct. The Festival will include academic discussions and lectures, demonstrations by ten Goan architectural craftspeople, a food stall with traditional Goan dishes, a book stall with books on Goa and an exhibition of Goan artifacts, cooking vessels and traditional utility items. The Group is also bringing out a publication titled Parmal (Fragrance) on the occasion and will be launching its own website at the inaugural ceremony. The evening will see live performances on a stage especially erected in the precinct punctuated by recitation of poems in Konkani by three Goan poets and traditional songs. The aim of the Festival is to generate better awareness on Goan heritage, its problems and solutions and to make heritage conservation a pleasurable activity shared by the entire Goan community. To help us generate this awareness, we would be most grateful if you could make the time and come for a press conference on November 15th, 2002 at 5 p.m. at the Panjim Municipal Council Conference Room, Panaji and join us for tea and snacks thereafter. A press note and some photographs have been prepared for your use. Members of the organizing committee and officials of our festival partners will also be present at the conference to answer any questions. With best wishes, Yours sincerely, Dr. Gustavo Pinto Press & Publicity ---------------------------------------------------------- What's On In Goa (WOIG): Nov 05 onwards: Wendell Rodrigues Festival.
