IndiaFest - India Association of Minnesota

About IAM
India Association of Minnesota (IAM) is a nonprofit organization whose aim is to build a strong
and cohesive community of Asian Indians in the
state of Minnesota. IAM seeks to represent the
Asian Indian population to the society at large.
One of IAM’s primary goals is to educate and
inform the broader MN community about India
and how to make the connection easier with
India as we become a globalized world. We
achieve this by conducting a number of events
throughout the year, bringing India closer to
Minnesota. More at www.iamn.org.
