Join "Traditions & Treasures," a gathering celebrating the vibrant diversity of our international community. As women from diverse backgrounds, we each hold fascinating perspectives, experiences, and traditions that can captivate and enrich others. At each session, members will share personal stories and insights into the unique traditions, crafts, collections, historical narratives, and more that define their heritage. Through engaging show-and-tell, storytelling, and interactive presentations, we will foster curiosity and appreciation for global perspectives, broadening horizons and deepening our understanding of our community's rich tapestry.
What: Handmade In India- Daily life in India is enriched by a colorful profusion of handmade goods, crafted lovingly with simple tools by artisans rooted in local traditions.
