The free event features several activities and performances showcasing Sikh culture, including Turban tying, arts and crafts, Henna, Punjabi Songs, Bhangra and Giddha performances, Dhol drumming and many other activities. Light refreshments will be served.
Throughout the library, there will be several exhibits featuring Punjabi attire, the group’s history and traditions, as well as book displays featuring the work of Sikh authors.
