To celebrate the vast cultures prevalent in Bangladesh, Bengal Foundation is going to organize a Sanskriti Utsab in Sylhet starting from February 22 to March 3. Cultural performances in music, dance and drama will be showcased in this exhibition. The first of its kind, Bengal Sanskriti Utsab will witness the participation of 425 musicians, artists, writers and craftsmen from home and abroad. This event will be dedicated to the memory of national Professor Gyantapas Abdur Razzaq. Moreover, the grand occasion will focus on the cultural diversity that is present in the form of arts and crafts.

Bengal Foundation has been making a mark in the cultural arena with its Classical Music Festival for the last five years.
