TAMIL HERITAGE CENTRE

In the new setup of Bharat Nivas, Tamil Heritage Centre has found its footing in the life of Auroville. There is a space allocated for the expression of Tamil Culture especially through the programmes that link up the Auroville Community to the local and bioregional context of its existence. This is now housed in the basement of the Sri Aurobindo Auditorium where also the outside space under the big Peepal Tree provide a more natural atmosphere for the interactive meetings, programmes, etc. This also has in its vicinity the Gallery of the Foyer of the auditorium and Kala Kendra, where exhibitions can be held to express the essence of the Tamil Culture. Also the site for the new complex of Tamil Heritage Centre has been allocated near the Atithigriha, where invocation is done through regular programmes.
