Apna-Sa – Sounds of Belonging is a thematic South Asian concert series celebrating the cultural heritage of South Asia. Curated by Indian classical violinist Pranav Swaroop Bettagere, the event features collaborations among talented artists (Shivaraj Natraj, beatboxer, and Antony Mathew, keyboardist) from the Greater Boston area, representing diverse South Asian traditions and influences.
Apna-Sa—which means "like my own" in Hindi/Urdu—aims to bring together South Asian communities to reconnect through sounds, stories, and traditions that feel deeply familiar, personal, and evoke a sense of home and shared cultural memory.
This special concert will kick off the weekend for What was Lost / Can be Remembered — an immersive, community-centered art exhibition and collage workshop by Annika Sarin and payal kumar, author event with Gayatri Sethi that explores the invisible links connecting us through collective memory, ancestral inheritance, and shared storytelling.
