Overview

The Special Events Committee is responsible for organizing Sanskriti's three big shows - Festival of Lights in the Autumn, Rhythms in the Winter and Mela in the Spring. These are large, dynamic, and exciting shows that feature some outstanding talent from across campus and tend to sell-out each year. Each show has a different focus, with Festival of Lights targeted at incorporating the newly-arrived freshmen; Rhythms serving as a multicultural charity event, thus allowing us to bridge the broader Stanford community while also raising money for a worthy cause; and Mela allowing anyone and everyone, regardless of prior experience, to participate. Through these shows, Sanskriti is able to reach out to the broader Stanford community, while also providing venues for their members to perform.
