‘Passport to India’

Encinitas Friends of the Arts (EFA) gave the community a chance to experience the sights, sounds and tastes of Indian culture Aug. 28 at “Passport To India.”

As part of EFA’s Passport Series at the Encinitas Community Center the program includes many of San Diego’s finest Indian artists, musicians and dancers.

Singer Rahis Ahmed Khan, an eighth-generation Indian musician from Jaipur Rajashtan, performed at the Aug. 28 event. He is trained in the art of ghazals, and is versed in Raagas (Indian melody scales) and Taals (Indian rhythm patterns).
