Who are we?

Sangam is a non-profit Indian students’ association based at MIT, which primarily aims at preserving and helping to promote, in the greater Boston area - through its popular social events, the amazingly diverse culture of this astonishing place called India!

Sangam means confluence, a meeting point of two or more rivers, a place where diverse cultures meet and flow together, a place where people of different origins, different cultures merge into one whole combined identity. It is impossible not to be astonished by India! Nowhere on Earth does humanity present itself in such a dizzying, creative burst of cultures and religions, races and tongues. Every aspect of the country presents itself on a massive, exaggerated scale, worthy in comparison only to the superlative mountains that overshadow it.

How do you become a part of the fun?

As we at Sangam strive to bring to you samples of the colorful Indian culture through our popular annual programs like Diwali Nite, and through smaller community events interspersed throughout the year, we would consider your participation and encouragement extremely valuable to our continuing efforts to make our events better. These are some ways you might get involved with out activities:

  • Attend our events. Please browse through our list of upcoming events and plan on attending them. Please feel free to contact sangam AT mit DOT edu with any questions or concerns regarding attending, volunteering or participating in our events.
  • Join our mailing list. This is a great way to remain in touch with us. You can sign up for the various Sangam mailing lists on the mailing lists page.
