Festival of Colors


"Holi is the Festival of Colors, a traditional Indian holiday celebrated in our own innovative fashion.
In India Holi announces the arrival of spring and the passing of winter. It is a festival that breathes an atmosphere of social merriment. People bury their hatchets with a warm embrace and throw their worries to the wind. Every nook and corner presents a typically colorful sight. Young and old alike are covered with colors (red, green, yellow, blue, black and silver). People in small groups are seen singing, dancing and throwing colors on each other.  Colors are thrown every 2 hours.

 Jamie and her friends went to the Festival of Colors in Spanish Fork.
