Our mission is to promote cultural awareness, unity, and diversity by bringing together people of Indian heritage and the wider community through festivals, cultural programs, language, music, dance, and social activities.

We provide a welcoming platform where families and individuals can connect, participate in cultural exchange, and contribute to building a harmonious multicultural society.

Passionate members driving our mission

Dr. Jignesh Vania

President

I have been living in coastal Western Australia for the past nine years, and in Geraldton for the last three. As a practicing dentist, I am deeply committed to both my profession and the wider community.

My passion lies in cultural and community activities, and I strongly believe in the role of the Midwest Indian Cultural Society (MICS) in enriching Geraldton’s social fabric. I envision MICS as a thriving, flourishing community—supporting not only people of Indian heritage to call Geraldton their long-term home, but also making a positive impact on the wider population through cultural exchange, support, and inclusiveness.

As President, I am honored to contribute towards the continued success of MICS, ensuring that together we grow with our culture, with Geraldton, and with each other.
