HfHR Uniting for Peace Interfaith Holi Celebration

While many may know of Holi as the Hindu festival of colour, food, and celebration (which it is!), it is so much more!

As a testament to India’s diverse and syncretic culture, Holi is a tribal spring festival, an agrarian harvest festival, a muse to poets and artists, both Hindu and Muslim, a call to display some warrior-like prowess to Sikhs, and even a wonderfully progressive occasion for match-making, where young men and women of the Bhil community, freely choose their partners - just with a playful dab of gulal or colour.

Join us to discover all of this and more, at our inter-cultural, inclusive Holi right here in Sydney. At a time when many forces seek to divide people, we commit to bringing people together, with love and respect for all our diverse cultures and lived experiences, bound by a common humanity.
