About the event
From Ancient Tongue to Living Legacy
In ancient verses, lullabies, and stories passed down through generations, Tamil has always been more than mere words. It carries the echoes of journeys taken, roots planted, and communities built. Born from the fertile soil of early civilisations, Tamil blossomed into a language revered through its literature, philosophy, and art.
Over centuries, it crossed oceans—carried by pilgrims, traders, and seekers—eventually finding a welcoming home in Singapore. Here, it became a vital thread in our multicultural tapestry, nurturing bonds and carrying forward a legacy of resilience and transformation.
In this bharatanatyam performance, we trace that journey—from ancient origins to its vibrant place in contemporary Singapore. We honour a language that continues to shape our identity, stir our memories, and inspire stories yet to come.
