| 詳情 | Tihar: Nepalese Festival of Light and Colours How do Crows, Dogs, Goddess, Oxens and Brothers have any connection with each other? To answer that, we have to travel to Nepal where Tihar is celebrated. We will explore the ways local people celebrate this occasion with food and garlands, and how dogs, pets or stray, are adorned with Tika and offered treats on the second day of Tihar. If you want to know how cow dung is used and why kids are singing praises and insults at adults during that festival week, then join us to light the night up.
Intense Island – La Réunion France is in Africa. True or false? The answer lies in the small French Overseas Territory of Reunion Island (“La Réunion”) next to Madagascar. Join us as we dive into the historical, environmental and multicultural richness of Reunion Island through our guest from the island, learn the local dialect called Creole and try our hands at some unique dance and dessert from the Intense Island. La Réunion lé là!
Korean Bojagi Art Join us to discover the beauty and art of Bojagi, a traditional Korean practice of wrapping objects with cloth! Bojagi has its roots in an ancient folk belief that wrapping things can preserve fortunes and blessings. Today, Bojagi is used for various purposes, such as wrapping gifts, food, or household items, and even preparing clothing. It also reflects the culture and lifestyle of Korea. In this event, you will learn about the history and meaning of Bojagi, and create your own wrapping art to take home. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience Korean heritage through Bojagi! |
