Membership
Welcome!
Ann Arbor Marathi Mandal (A2MM) is a non profit community organization serving Michigan since April 2006. A2MM is organized exclusively for cultural, educational and charitable purposes, including promoting festivals, musical performances and dramas related to culture, traditions and language of "Maharashtra", a western state of India. We organize cultural, social, musical, and theatrical events related to traditional Maharashtrian culture including Makar Sankrant, Gudhi Padwa, Maharashtra Day, Ganesh Chaturthi, Kojagiri and Diwali. We also have other activities like Sahal (Picnic), Marathi Natak, Karaoke club & Cinema, to add to the fun. Our aim is to promote, preserve, cherish and perpetuate the socio-cultural values of Maharashtrian culture as well as our history and traditions amongst all Maharashtrians in USA. In doing so we hope to pass the Marathi traditions to the next generation. Hence we also emphasize participation by younger generation in each of our programs.
We would like to create a forum for all Marathi loving folks to promote interaction and participation to contribute towards our uniqueness. Our aim is to promote assimilation in the 'American Way of Life' yet preserving our Maharashtrian personality and tradition.
Please encourage your friends to join the Mandal and contribute to Mandal's activities. Welcome once again and we look forward to your active participation.
