South Zone Cultural Centre, Thanjavur
South
Zone Cultural Centre in Thanjavur in Tamilnadu state is one of many regional cultural centres
established by Indian
Government to preserve and
promote traditional cultural heritage of India.
The
South Cultural Zone is one of seven Cultural Zones of India defined and provided with administrative
infrastructure by the Government of India.
The
South Zone Cultural Centre was established to bring the indigenous cultures of
the zone closer to the masses, especially to the rural populace and to the
under privileged, and make them understand, experience, educated and enjoy this
cultural variety of our country. This will not only help the country to keep
alive the cultural values and traditions but will also keep it emotionally
integrated.
Much of
our cultural development after independence has been limited to a few who have
appreciated it, the knowledgeable. It has not been permeated down to the rest
of our society. Dance, Drama, Music and Art must all integrate to make a total
concept of every aspect of our culture through Zonal Cultural Centres. The
programmes are organized in line with this vision and with the intention to
perform the centrifugal role of disseminating culture outwards.
