Pacific Rasa Festival

An evening of Natya Theater, a dialogue on the science of emotions, and an embodied experience for everyone in the room.
About this Event

The Pacific Rasa Festival is a festival of embodied arts and the science of emotions, founded by psychologist and Natya artist Dr. Dimple Kaur.

Rasa means essence- the felt heart of art, of feeling, and of taste. The Founding Edition brings the three together in one evening.
