Umak Centre For Culture Pandit Debu Chaudhuri

The center is located at J-1852 in C R Park and we are quite easy to find since we are near the Allahabad Bank. It is a quiet enough street most of the time which is good because we focus on culture and the arts here. Umak Centre For Culture Pandit Debu Chaudhuri has been part of this neighborhood for a bit now. We spend our hours mostly surrounded by music and thinking about the traditions that have been around for ages. It is not a corporate building with security guards and badges. It is more like a house where people come to learn and talk about things that matter to them. The rooms have that smell of old wood and maybe a bit of incense sometimes. We are just a few people who care about keeping these things going. C R Park is a nice place for this because people around here actually appreciate the effort. Sometimes the traffic near the bank gets backed up and you can hear the horns but once you step inside it feels different. We don't have a big marketing team or anything. We just open the doors and do what we do. It is a lot of practice and talking and just being present. We just want to keep the spirit of Pandit Debu Chaudhuri’s work alive in our own small way. It is a steady, slow kind of life we have here.
