Nowruz Celebration

Ring in Nowruz (Iranian New Year and the arrival of spring, or literally “new day”) with the Farhang Foundation with a day of free authentic cultural performances, music and activities for children. The 15th annual outdoor program in UCLA’s Dickson Court (near Royce Hall) includes a drum ensemble, storytelling, dancing, a puppet show, a tea house and a traditional Haft-sin table display. It’s one of the largest Nowruz celebrations in the world—last year’s event drew 25,000 people. Look out for a ticketed concert at Royce Hall later that evening, as well.
