    4.1.2 CULTURAL/YOGA/GAMES/SPORTS 1. Cultural Activities The overall ambience of Visva Bharati truly demands exceptionality. Here learning is a holistic all-encompassing process rather than a regulated and stifling experience. Large portions of the campus are open to the general public as Santiniketan and Visva-Bharati are as much cultural pilgrimage spaces as they are educational institutes. The overall ambience of the university is a small town with students, teachers, administrative staff rubbing their shoulders in the common campus space with locals and visitors. It must be noted that entry of visitors into academic classes and spaces during the academic exercise are not permitted. Many of the university’s facilities and spaces – washrooms, roads, museums, parts of the core Ashrama areas during specific times – are open to public viewing and visiting. During cultural events and utsavs in Visva-Bharati’s packed academic calendar, visitors are allowed into the campus especially during the two major events of Vasanta Utsav and Poush Mela. During those times, a large number of Visva-Bharati facilities and spaces are open to the public albeit under careful scrutiny and control. 1. Poush Mela: Poush Mela is celebrated for three days in mid-December that takes place in the large Mela Maath opposite the ashram. Poush Mela is an annual fair and festival that marks the harvest season. The event is characterized by its live performances of Bengali folk music, especially Bauls, tribal dance (Santhali), firework displays. The rows of stalls here sell a wide variety of products like toys, garments, books, household items, utensils and local handicrafts.
