The Cultural Forum doesn’t restrict itself to the boundaries of the campus but also spreads its wings outside. Our College has hosted the Youth festival (conducted by the University of Mumbai) for Literary and Fine Arts events twice. Besides this, our students eagerly participate in the Youth Festival events and have brought accolades to our college.
Besides academics, students gear themselves up for the cultural week in December. This year SciCo Expo 2019-an intra campus Fun Fair made its pilot venture which was a huge success. SciCo Expo is a Fun Fair event comprising of stalls put up by Somaiyites for Somaiyites in the very heart of the Somaiya Vidyavihar campus, i.e. the ‘Gargi Plaza’.
