Join SOMA CCW in partnership with Maplewood Division of Arts & Culture to boisterously celebrate Asian American Pacific Islander heritage month with Holi - the festival of colors.

Holi is an ancient Indian festival which celebrates Spring and New Life, victory of good over evil and above all LOVE in all its forms and expressions.

During the festival, people throw colored powder at each other and participate freely in all the resulting fun and frolic. Traditionally no one is off limits - young or old, rich or poor, man or woman or child.

Dress casual and in preferably old clothes that you would not mind acquiring a few permanent stains from the holi colors. White and light colors show off the color patterns the best.

A fixed amount of Holi colors is included in the cost of the ticket. Additional color will be available for purchase at the event for a nominal amount - payable by cash or Venmo.

Please remember to carry cash for extra color, snacks and drinks at the event.

Carry your picnic blankets and chairs and be prepared to ENJOY!!! and have a time of your life!
