Our Journey
18+ years of celebrating Bengali culture and community in the Cincinnati tri-state area
What began as a small group of Bengali families with a framed idol of Ma Durga has blossomed into a thriving community organization. From our first Durga Puja to today's grand celebrations, CCI has grown to host year-round cultural events — Saraswati Pujo, Bengali New Year, summer picnics, Lakshmi Pujo, and our beloved Sparsha outreach program.
