CAD - Culturally Active Delhiites
We are thrilled and privileged to be a part of this group that has some of the most outstanding and intimate cultural experiences in Delhi.  Thank you, our dear friends.  How incredibly blessed we are to fall in with such a wonderful group of people.

As we look forward to welcoming the new year 2019, CAD is privileged to present yet another Baithak with strong leanings towards Hindustani Classical music this time. As usual our Baithaks provide an intimate and interactive setting for enjoying the performance while the artists are also able to explain some of the nuances of their rendition and that sets us apart from a typical concert. 

Vivek Prajapati is a Rising Star in Classical Vocal genre. An exponent of Dilli Gharana, he will not only present Khayal that’s his speciality but also few raag based Thumri and Ghazals. He is a promising disciple of Ustaad Iqbal Ahmed Khan.


 Being acknowledged!

They have never heard of "free range chickens!"  Talk about a head bobble. And . . . they don't pluck but just skin the chicken right in front of you (taking off feathers and skin together) in these obviously FDA approved facilities.  Could it get any fresher? Fabric and sewing shop at INA Market Friday Sisters Peck and Hodges invited me to come along with them to INA (Indian National Airways)    Market where we found all sorts of fruits, vegetables, poultry, clothes, bedding, jewelry, you name it.    I found some bright dishcloths to make up into scripture bags for my Valiant Primary class.   ...
