Info about this year’s Kazakh Aul of the US’s Nauryz festival to be held on March 24th in Arlington, Mass is now up on the Aul’s website, including
information about programs and a downloadable registration form. Nauryz is a major Central Asian holiday to welcome the new year at the spring equinox.
Our Kazakhstan Culture Liaison, Assylgul Dalabayeva, is coming from Almaty to perform Dombra, plus traditional dances will be performed by Gulsaya Tuleubayeva, Daniyar and Bakhtiyar Baidaralin. Admission fees are cheaper if you register by March 17th http://www.kazakh-aul-us.org/Activities.htm
For those of you — most of you – for whom geography makes attending
prohibitive, but want to learn more about Nauryz and ways that you can
welcome the new year at home, we invite you to download a pdf that Daniyar
and I put together last year, http://www.kazakh-aul-us.org/Activities.htm
Please feel free to forward this to anyone whom you think might be
interested. Thank you!
Nauryz Kuttuh Bolsyn!
(Have a happy Nauryz!)
