Keshet Chaim and Karmagraphy Announces LAND OF LIGHT
This year is expected to be the breakout year for India and Israel's relationship.
There has been a steady strengthening of India's collaboration with Israel ever since the two established full diplomatic relations in 1992. Israel and India are creating their bond through culture, defense, diplomacy, agriculture, water management and trade.
The Keshet Chaim Dance Ensemble and Karmagraphy are excited to continue this cooperation through dance. They will share the stage and create together to expand their knowledge, language and movement. Contemporary Israeli dance meets Bollywood!
