Welcome the arrival of spring, learn about the ancient traditions of Holi, and explore a world of colors through art.

Holi is an ancient Hindu festival celebrated on the full moon day of Phalguna, the 12th month of the Hindu calendar. This festival celebrates spring, love, and new life. During this time, people across India and throughout the world celebrate the Festival of Colors by going into the street to throw colors at one another.

STEAM programs can also include any of the visual or performing arts, such as dance, design, painting, photography and writing.
