The Society celebrated Tsagaan Sar, the Mongolian Lunar New Year, on Saturday, February 2, 2024, at the Ferguson International Center on the Indiana University-Bloomington campus.

The event drew dozens of people, including the Society’s President, Ambassador (Ret.) Michael Klecheski, and many from the Bloomington Mongolian American community. It included music and dance, food, and a powerful sense of community, not only locally but also with relatives and friends in Mongolia, too.

The Society wishes to thank all the groups and institutions that supported this celebration, including the Department of Central Eurasian Studies and Inner Asian and Uralic National Resource Center (at Indiana University, Bloomington), the Mongolian Student Association, and the Bloomington Mongolian community.
