About Us
Ink & Marigold is an independent online magazine that explains Indian culture and its traditions in Germany.
What It Is About
The magazine collects explanatory articles on festivals, classical music and dance, languages and scripts, and the regional cuisine of India. It is meant to give guidance to people who want to know more about these topics, whether out of personal interest, curiosity about a concert evening or because a festival is being celebrated in the neighborhood.
Independent and Not Tied to Any Organization
The site is an independent information resource. It has no connection to associations, federations, embassies or other organizations, does not speak on their behalf and publishes neither event dates nor membership lists. If you want to attend a celebration or a concert, ask the respective organizers for dates.
How the Articles Come About
The texts are general and rest on well-documented basic knowledge, such as the text of India's constitution or UNESCO's lists of intangible cultural heritage. Where details change from year to year, such as festival dates, a note says so.
