India hits a milestone this year as it celebrates the 65th anniversary of its independence, and Houston-based ex-pats are celebrating with India Fest 2011: Amazing India @ 65. The day includes dancing, craft booths, musical performances and, of course, food. Best of all, it’s being held inside, so you don’t have to worry about the summer sun wilting your enthusiasm. 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. George R. Brown Convention Center, 1001 Avenida de las Americas. For information, call 832-259-2178 or visit www.houstonconventioncenter.com. $4.95.
