The Desi Dance Club at Oakton celebrates the music,
dance, fashion, and fine art of India in “Show Me Your Jalwa,”
a live variety and talent show, 7 – 10 p.m., Saturday, Dec.
20, at Oakton Community College, 1600 E. Golf Road, Des Plaines.
General admission tickets are $7 and parking is free.
Professional dancers from Chicago’s Natraj Dance Academy and
