This is where it all began!
A year after moving to Cambridge, MA, our founders were inspired to share a piece of Indonesian culture with their local community at MIT. When they received an invitation to participate in a cultural showcase during student orientation at the Sidney-Pacific Graduate Student Housing, they eagerly submitted a proposal to present Indonesian food and traditional dance.
With the support of Nusantara Kreasindo and several MIT students, Yodha and Dhini presented Piring dance and Nusantara Kreasindo performed Giring-Giring dance, and served a table of delicious satay and Luak coffee.
Boston Cendrawasih is especially grateful to Ms. Dian Simanjuntak and Nusantara Kreasindo for lending us the Piring costume and making the journey from Portsmouth, NH, to support this special event!
