The Ganapati Utsav at ISU concluded with Visarjan which was performed in Brookside Park here in Ames, IA on September 17, 2016. The event was attended by about 50 people, including a few Americans. The event began with Ganapati Darshan followed by Atharvasheersha chanting and some bhajans in the praise of Lord Ganesha. The most exciting part was the lezim dance (a traditional dance form) which was enjoyed by everyone. After the visarjan of turmeric Ganapati in the creek, prasadam was served to everyone. These are some of the pictures from the event.
