The Pallas Athena Cultural Society (PACS), under the aegis of Amritsar Group of Colleges (AGC), serves as the premier cultural forum on campus dedicated to fostering artistic expression, cultural appreciation, and holistic personal growth among students. Rooted in AGC’s commitment to nurture not just academic excellence but also human values and creativity, PACS provides a vibrant platform for students to engage in music, dance, theatre, literary pursuits, and other cultural activities, helping them build confidence, leadership, teamwork, and a deep connection to cultural heritage. Through regular meetings, student-led clubs, and a calendar of diverse events and festivals, PACS plays a vital role in creating an inclusive, dynamic campus environment where students can explore their talents, celebrate creativity, and grow as empowered, well-rounded individuals. The society’s activities are driven by student enthusiasm and initiative, supported by faculty guidance. PACS plays a pivotal role in organizing signature cultural events such as the Fresher’s Party, National Level Techno-Cultural Fest, food and traditional festivals, and participation in Youth Festival competitions — all of which contribute to a dynamic, inclusive, and culturally enriching campus environment.
