The Gurung (Tamu), an indigenous people from Nepal, has a significant presence in New York City, adding to the vibrant cultural tapestry of the metropolis. Gurung people in New York maintain their cultural practices, traditions, and close-knit community bonds that resulted in establishing the Gurung (Tamu) Society Inc. in 2001 AD. In New York, Gurung individuals often gather in communities around Queens and Brooklyn, creating social networks that help preserve their cultural heritage. These communities are a blend of traditional values and the adaptation to the modern American way of life. Gurung cultural events, festivals, and gatherings play a crucial role in keeping their traditions alive. One of the notable aspects of the Gurung society in New York is their commitment to preserving their language, dress, music, and dances. Festivals like Tamu Lhosar (Gurung New Year) and various community events bring the community together.
