ESSENCE OF FESTIVALS

The very 'essence' of a festival is our 'presence. '
It is our presence that raises the joy of celebration. It's all about sharing. Festivals are the time to be grateful and cultivate togetherness with happiness. 

What festivals mean to you? 
We all have a festival very close to our heart, what's yours? 
How do you celebrate that? 

Please share your views on festivals and the special efforts you make to celebrate them. And let us become a part of your celebration. 

Wherever we're, let's make it happen...Keep posting as the festivities already began!

Festivals provide us with the time to spend with ourselves and the ones we

truly love and care about. It's a period for deeper introspection, allowing us to know ourselves better and find peace within.

Often referred to as “a party with a purpose,” the Essence Festival of Culture promotes, celebrates, and explores health & wellness, spirituality, beauty & style, food, community & culture, entertainment, entrepreneurship, and much more within the African American community.

When I think of festivals - the first images that come to my mind - flowers, candles, lights, ladoos   , ethnic dresses and laughter
