Day Of Celebrations.....

Today, we concluded the week and prepared ourselves for the Spring Break with several celebrations, including the celebration of Navroz (New Year) commemorated by various communities around the world particularly by Shia Muslims.

NAVROZ CELEBRATION:

Ariana sharing the Iranian tradition of "Haft Seen" or Seven items beginning with the Persian alphabet "S" that are placed on the table as part of Navroz celebration.  Each one of them symbolizes some form of blessing in the new year ahead.
