The Society for the Promotion of Indian Classical Music And Culture Amongst Youth,often known by its initials(SPICMACAY),is a voluntary youth movement which promotes Indian classical music,Indian classical dance,and other aspects of Indian culture.
The movement caught the imagination of young people and began to grow geographically and numerically. While on the other hand, the idea had to be painstakingly introduced in minor doses, on the other, there was a clamoring for the programs in schools and colleges. A combination of both has resulted in network of over 300 centers in India and 50 centers abroad. About 4,000 events are conducted yearly.
While the movement lays greater stress on the classical forms, it recognises the multitudes of folk arts and crafts of the country. Therefore, with a view of exposing students to these, SPICMACAY encourages programmes through individual events of FOLK FESTS and CRAFT Workshops.
We have a SPICMACAY(Society For The Promotion Of Indian Classical Music And Culture Amongst Youth) chapter in the school that has over the years introduced the students to the cultural mosaic that is India.
