Post Nagar Kirtan Kirtan presented by Vancouver Youth Keertan and Sikh Academy

Join us for an evening that brings together the power of storytelling, music, and performance to celebrate local artistic talent. This special event will showcase musicians, actors, and writers from our community, culminating in the original stage production Sab Mai Jot.

At the heart of the evening is a compelling and introspective play that follows an ambitious playwright determined to create a powerful story about wounded warriors. As his obsession grows, it begins to strain his personal life. In a surprising turn, one of his own characters refuses to follow the script and instead chooses compassion - helping a dying enemy. This moment challenges the playwright’s perspective, forcing him to confront his ego and reconsider what truly matters.

Sab Mai Jot is a simple yet moving story about ego, change, and the transformative power of kindness. Through layered storytelling and thoughtful performances, the play invites audiences to reflect on humanity, connection, and the light within us all.

Come experience an evening of meaningful art, community, and conversation.

This event will showcase youth work from Grade 7–12 students, highlighting pieces that explore Sikh history, immigration journeys, and the trials and tribulations faced by our community. The focus of the event is to center youth narratives and youth perspectives, allowing young people to reflect on the stories, struggles, and resilience that shape Sikh experiences in Canada. The exhibition will feature a display of student-created pieces that engage with these themes and provide a space for youth voices to share how they understand and carry forward these histories today.

Join Dr. Sharanjit Kaur Sandhra of Belonging Matters Consulting as she leads a dialogue and tour of the historic site of Paldi - a community with deep rooted interracial ties and founded by Sikhs. The tour will not only highlight the past, but bring sangat into the contemporary moment on the need to keep these histories and stories alive, relevant, and meaningful.
