by | Oct 19, 2022 | Featured, Featured: Features

Hopkinton’s Indian population recently celebrated Navratri with events in the Legacy Farms North neighborhood. About 400 residents participated in the Oct. 1 main event, which was composed of folk dances, delicious food and games. Participants dressed in colorful local attires with dandiya (sticks) for the dance performances.

Navratri celebrations last for nine days. The residents braved the cold on some of the nights and did not let it dampen their spirit of celebrating outside with functions and dances that continued unabated. Children also enjoyed the experience.

“It was great for everyone to see how well the next generation is also able to not just appreciate but participate in these traditionally rich cultural events,” shared Piyush Saxena, one of the organizers.
