Around Queens: Himalayan Dance Competition

the Himalayan Dance Competition, a vibrant celebration of the rich cultural heritage of the Himalayan region.

As you may know, the Himalayan community in Queens is one of the fastest-growing and most diverse in New York City. Our event aims to showcase and preserve the unique cultural traditions of this group, including art, music, and dance, which are essential in maintaining a sense of identity amidst the globalizing world.

The Himalayan Dance Competition is more than just a performance; it is a platform for participants and audiences to connect with their roots, celebrate their heritage, and foster a strong sense of belonging. The competition also emphasizes the values of compassion, volunteerism, and harmony—principles deeply embedded in Buddhist teachings—that inspire our community and uplift future generations.

In collaboration with Live to Love (

Live to Love ) and Drukpa USA, this initiative strives to bring together diverse Himalayan communities, strengthening our bonds while promoting cultural exchange. We believe that your coverage of this event will help highlight the contributions of this significant population in Queens and contribute to showcasing the vibrancy of multiculturalism in New York City.

We would be honored to have your station cover the Himalayan Dance Competition and would love to discuss how we can work together to make this celebration a success.
