Discover the beautiful customs and traditions of Nowruz, the Persian New Year celebration. Join us as we welcome the first day of Spring, new beginnings, and the renewal of nature with this ancient holiday observed by more than 300 million people around the world. Enjoy traditional music and dance, learn about the Haft-sin table arrangement, and engage in hands-on art activities to honor the Spring Equinox that kicks off the ‘new day’ celebration.
