Who We Are
History and Mission
A handful of Bengalis in St. Louis were holding events since early 1980’s. As the number of families and events started to grow, a non-profit organization PUNASCHA was incorporated and formalized in 1987. The name was inspired from Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s literary work. PUNASCHA means “repeat or new dimension”. We picked the name to signify a continuance of celebration of our heritage and traditions in our new home, St. Louis.
We strive to foster the indomitable Bengali cultural spirit, it's deep rooted performing arts and literary heritage by involving our young ones in all events with us, including toddlers, so the tradition continues.
