Sart day - Wat Florida Dhammaram in Kissimmee
2025-09-21 10:30 - 14:30 | Wat Florida Dhammaram of Kissimmee, 2421 Old Vineland Rd, Kissimmee, FL, 34746, United States
Sart Day is traditionally the midyear merit-making event. On this day Buddhists dedicate their meritorious deeds to their deceased ancestors. There might be slight discrepancies of timing in different localities, but usually it is celebrated on the tenth lunar month.
Sart day has been continuously preserved as a tradition in Southeast Asian countries, such as Loa, Thailand, etc. We believe that our deceased ancestors may have an opportunity to encounter our generosity. This is an occasion for extending our gratitude; Katannu-katavedi. This gesture exemplifies the quality of our trained mind. Buddhists also perform a special ceremony, called Pamsukula, literally, (offering) a yellow discarded robe, dedicated to the deceased; after contemplating on the impermanence of all compounded things.
There is also a special way of offering requisites, called salak-bhatta (random selection of things to offer). It is comparable to the usual way of offering to the community of the Sangha. It is a meritorious act that amplifies the good fortune of the generous mind. Wat Florida Dhammaram invites everyone to participate in this special event of merit making.

10:30 am. Religious ceremony in the Uposatha Hale and offering alms food
11:00 am. Repast
01:00 pm. Delivery of semon.
01:30 ρπ Offering up robe to the monks, in memory of the descendants or ancestors (Pungsukuła).

Global Peace Film Festival: Man From Pretentia
2025-09-20 16:30 - 18:30 | Winter Park Library, 1052 W Morse Blvd, Winter Park, FL, 32789, United States
Director Liang graduated from the School of Journalism and Communication at Syracuse University. She previously worked as a director and editor for Taiwan Public Television and has served as a contributing director and editor for several television stations. She is currently a documentary director and editor in New York. Her work premiered at DOC NYC and won the Audience Choice Award.
She also wrote a special letter inviting members of the Taiwanese American Association of Greater Orlando (TAAGO) to attend. This event is not only an opportunity to support Taiwanese directors and showcase Taiwanese culture, but also to deeply feel the warmth and support of Taiwanese people during her visit to Orlando.
The key to this event is to encourage everyone to spread the word and invite more friends to participate, so that we can all support Taiwanese directors and international film festivals!

Man from Pretentia offers a portrait of Paul Bridgewater, who hitchhiked to Manhattan without money or a plan at the age of 18 and eventually became a fixture of the then up-and-coming SoHo gallery district. Paul is driven by a love for art, the artists and the ordinary people who are deserving of beauty in equal measure. His lack of ambition for wealth and status makes his life a precarious tight walk that leads to the loss of his gallery in the end. Through it all he lives with integrity and enriches every life he touches. Chih Hsuan Liang’s respectful and deeply curious approach raises this profile from the merely “quirky” to the inspirational.
