A photograph of a cultural dance performance under an open-sided pavilion with red-painted posts and a roof. Around ten young women in white saris with red borders and red blouses stand in two rows on a red-and-white patterned mat, facing each other with hands raised in a dance gesture. Seated on the left and right, a large audience of children and adults in orange, yellow and white clothes watches, and on the right musicians sit playing drums and a large drum, with boys in white dhotis and orange shawls. Palm trees and a red-roofed building are in the background, and an umbrella-shaped canopy stands at the upper right.
