Screening of footage of Kathmandu Valley shot in 1955-7
On the occasion of Yenyaa Punih, there will be a special screening this evening (Thursday) of exclusive film footage of Kathmandu Valley from 1955-7. Here are a couple of screen captures from the footage. Shot it 16 mm and in color, it includes extensive coverage of the daily lives of the Newaa people in the Kathmandu Valley, as well as interesting scenes of religious and cultural events and venues and major thoroughfares.
The venue of the screening is just outside the main gate of Janabahaa, on the main road in Kel Tole. It will start at 7 pm, and will last about three hours. All are welcome to attend this event.
This event has been made possible by Macchindra Club and Bajrayogini Credit & Saving Co-operative Ltd.
Nepalbhasa daily Sandhya Times published a news piece on its front page (http://www.newanepa.com/show_tajilaji.php?id=28) yesterday announcing the screening.
Janabahaa Heritage Information Centre aims to bring about positive changes around the Seto Macchendranath complex in central Kathmandu to solve issues faced by this sacred neighborhood -- by increasing awareness so that community members will come up with solutions.
We send out brief emails periodically to anyone who is interested in the happenings and developments at Janabahaa. If you would like to be in that mailing list, please write a short note to alokstuladhar@gmail.com.
