Celebrations Around the World - 2001
A Time of Sharing

6:00 PM - 9:30 PM
Multicultural Center Hardge Forum

Overview of Event

It¡¯s that time of year again! The Holiday Season is here and the Multicultural Center wants to share this joyous time with you.

Celebrations Around the World is a festival of traditions commemorating the ways in which diverse cultures celebrate, marking the closing of the old year and the coming of the new year. Students will share and present music and customs from holidays such as: Kwanzaa, Christmas, Ramadan, Three Kings, Diwali, Hanukkah,  and Chinese New Year. 

So as the night progresses; as each story is told, each performance is magically performed and each word eloquently spoken, this will be one night you will not forget.
