Officially, Holi takes place on March 14 this year, but the Brooklyn Children's Museum is keeping the colorful celebrations going well into spring with a Saturday, May 3 celebration of springtime, renewal and joy. Held in three sessions (10am-12:30m, 1pm-3:30pm, 4pm-6:30pm), the high-energy Holi Festival from BCM, Ajna Dance Company and The Culture Tree will be a full day of Bollywood dancing, colorful puppet shows, delicious treats, art-making, music, and more.
Of course, there will be pounds of color powder for the ultimate color toss—families are encouraged to wear white and get messy as the festival will travel to neighboring Brower Park.
