The Goan Overseas Association (G.O.A.) welcomes you to an informative interactive speakers’ session about Goa on Saturday, May 7th 2011 at the Franklin Horner Community Centre in Etobicoke. The goal of this event is to educate the Goan diaspora in the GTA about the rich heritage of the place we all call our own – AMCHE GOA! DETAILS @ http://www.goatoronto.com/events/details/112-your-goa-101-may-7 The day will start with an overview of Goa highlighting interesting facts, pictures and anecdotes about the State. Speakers will also focus on the history of Goa from the pre-liberation period to current modern times. But this isn’t a history lecture; we will be lunching on traditional Goan cuisine (included in your ticket), learning some basic Konkani and having an open forum from participants of the Know Goa Program on current issues Goans are facing. The event will conclude with a lesson on the popular Goan folk dance, the Lancers. Know Goa Program participants will be holding a raffle to raise funds and awareness of Goa Chitra, a museum in Benaulim, showcasing traditional Goan farming implements and other Goan antiques. You will leave this session feeling a true Goenkar! For more information please see the flyer or contact Marcelina Dias (905) 828-1274 or [email protected].
