The annual Sikh Community of Southern California Vaisakhi Celebration will be held at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Sunday, April 7th from 7am – 6pm
The program consists of a Kirtan Darbar (a day of sacred and spirited musical held in the royal court of Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, the Guru of Sikhs) and a Nagar Kirtan (a traveling Kirtan parade with Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji) encompassing a two-mile route in downtown L.A. The Kirtan Darbar begins at 7 am and continues until 6 pm.
We are excited to announce the participation of SALDEF Executive Director, Kiran Kaur Gill in the 2023 Parliament of the World’s Religions from August 14-18 in Chicago, IL.
The 2023 Parliament convening is the most important and largest gathering of the world’s religious and spiritual leaders and practitioners, activists, and organizers uniting in a collective, courageous, and clear reply to the most dangerous crisis confronting us today–authoritarianism.
As the leader of the oldest Sikh advocacy organization in the United States, Kiran Kaur Gill has a proven track record of working to promote understanding and tolerance between different faiths.
The listed sessions at the Parliament (photo on right) will be an opportunity to share her insights on how we can build a more just and equitable world for all people.
The Parliament of the World’s Religions is a unique opportunity for people of all faiths to come together and build bridges of understanding. To view full event details, please visit https://parliamentofreligions.org/2023-program/.
