Friends of Indian Music and
Dance
The Friends of Indian Music and Dance, formed in the fall of 1992, is dedicated to the
promotion and integration of Indian performing arts into the cultural life of
Burlington and Vermont.
The performing arts of the Indian
subcontinent, encompassing diverse cultures, represent many of the oldest and
most extensive artistic traditions in the world. FIMD's goal is to present some
of the finest, internationally acclaimed artists, including those who have
established themselves as teachers and performers in this country as well as
younger artists of outstanding caliber.
FIMD is a non-profit membership organization
affiliated with the University of Vermont, and is operated by a group of
volunteers from the Burlington community and UVM faculty and staff who have
contributed their time and energies toward the successful growth of the
organization. Our strength, however, lies in the support of our contributing
members. Contributions are tax-deductible and members receive discounts at
concerts. To promote awareness of this rich heritage among the students in the
Burlington area, FIMD arranges lecture/demonstrations and offers discounted
tickets to students at the concerts.
