Description

This program will be in person at 53rd St Library. 

Holi has been celebrated in the Indian subcontinent for centuries, commemorating the arrival of spring after a cold winter. It is now celebrated around the world as a way to welcome spring, embrace inclusivity and get messy with color. Learn more about the holiday with author Anu Sehgal, founder of The Culture Tree, who will read from her first book on Holi. This bilingual reading (Hindi and English) will tell the story of "Kahaani Rangeeli" or "Colorful Story." After storytime, there will be Holi art activity and Holi face painting. This event is geared for ages 3-10
