Tall cylindrical hanging banners with bold yellow, blue, red and green patterns hang from the ceiling, and a small stage with a central backdrop sits at the far end. Some attendees wear saffron-yellow and green garments, and a few sit closer to the front with hands raised in applause. Speakers are mounted on the rigging and a camera on a tripod stands at the right edge.
