Culture Vulture: Ravana Lecture


Photo by Journey Round My Skull


Perera Hussein publishers, er, publish this list of cultural happenings about town. I’ve been meaning to highlight it but felt the moment was a bit inopportune what with the war. I say not that the war is over, there’s still an incredible amount of work to do, but life also does need to return to normal. The scene in Colombo has died down a lot but it’s slowly happening again. There are a few new restaurants, most notably Harpo’s Park Street Mews. There are also ongoing events as listed in this PDF. I personally am very interested on the lecture on Ravana and Ramayana in Sri Lanka.

That lecture is at the Indian Cultural Centre on the 16th July. And that’s all I’m interested in. But perhaps you’ll find something that interests you.
