Australia’s multi-culturalism is a testament to the beauty of diversity and the unity of people from different backgrounds. Celebrating the essence of this diversity, the Facebook groups Sydney Tamil Magalir Mandram (STMM) and South Indians in Sydney (SIS) came together to organize the Summer Mela on February 19th, 2023. The event was a day-long celebration of art, culture, and tradition that saw an enthusiastic participation of people from all walks of life.

Headed by Vinithra Jayaraman and hosted by a selection of young anchors, the Summer Mela was a vibrant and colorful event that showcased the rich cultural heritage of India. The event was a perfect amalgamation of traditional and contemporary art forms, which included music, dance, and fashion.

The highlight of the Summer Mela was the cultural fashion show, which was a platform for women entrepreneurs to showcase their businesses focused around women clothing and accessories. The fashion show was a stunning display of creativity as the models walked the ramp adorned in beautiful sarees, jewellery, and accessories. We had the privilege of showcasing our selection of handloom sarees across silk cotton and cotton varieties.

The Summer Mela was an excellent opportunity for people to connect with their cultural roots and celebrate their traditions in a foreign land. The event was a melting pot of cultures, as people from different ethnicities and nationalities came together to witness the beauty of India's rich heritage.

In conclusion, the Summer Mela was an incredible event that brought together people from all walks of life to celebrate and embrace diversity.
