It’s TODAY! Join Us for a Historic Weekend of Pride, Culture & Unity – this Aug 15!
Dear Community members, friends and well-wishers,
My joy knows no bound as I share this email with you! We, at IAGB, have a power-packed weekend ahead, one that celebrates both our heritage and our shared spirit of unity!
Friday, August 15, 2025 – A Historic “First” Flag Raising for IAGB at the MA State House!
It is with immense pride and joy that I share this milestone with you! For the first time in IAGB’s history, we will raise the Indian Flag inside the Massachusetts State House, alongside the U.S. Flag – a powerful tribute to our heritage and our shared identity as Indian Americans.
This is more than a ceremony. It is a celebration of our journey, a testament to our community’s perseverance, and a heartfelt expression of true patriotism: inclusive, respectful, and united in spirit.
Event Details: 📅 Date: Friday, August 15, 2025 🕚 Time: 11:30 AM (Please arrive by 11:00 AM to be seated in the Great Hall) 📍 Location: The Great Hall, Massachusetts State House 📌 Address: 24 Beacon St, Boston, MA 02133 👗 Dress Code: Wear your tricolors with pride! 🎵 Cultural performances & sweet treats (mithai) will follow the flag raising.
The Great Hall, with its marble floors, glass dome, and the flags of all 351 Massachusetts towns, will be the perfect backdrop as we raise the flags of two great nations we belong to.
Let’s come together to honor our heritage, embrace diversity, and India’s resonance with cultures around the world.
With pride & anticipation, On behalf of the IAGB Executive Committee,
Tanu Phoenix President, Indian Association of Greater Boston
IAGB goes to The State House
