A Celebration Of Holi Festival At University Of Texas (courtesy: www.flickr.com)
The festivals have kept the cultural heritage alive which has been passed on to us from generations. Apart from nurturing and keeping the culture alive, the festivals bring together people of different religion, nationalities and ethnic groups under a single roof for celebration and enjoyment. And I think this is the true essence of celebrating festivals.
Holi is one such festival which is celebrated on the onset of spring which marks the arrival of rejuvenation of the spirit of life. On this day people from different backgrounds come together and smear each other by colored powder or throw colored water at each other. Traditional games are played and food is enjoyed.
The festival has its origin from India were it is the most awaited festival right from a small kid to elders. The Hindu Students Council in Austin Texas welcomes you all for the Holi Festival on 28th March 2009 at 2247 Guadalupe, University Of Texas, South Mall By the 6 Pack Austin, TX, from 2 pm to 5 pm. The event is free, with free food, t-shirts, music colors, and water balloons.
