years which introduced Indian cultural
festivals to a very diverse audience of
people from close to 150 nationalities

alities to fall in love with India’s vibrant
and inclusive culture when I start-

contributes to a worthy cause so it was
a fun night out for all us ladies but with
a meaningful purpose.”
Eventor is contributing 5% of all
ticket sales to the Rotary Club of The
Palisades which in turn is forwarding
all donations to the Ukraine Relief
Fund. A number of sponsors backed
the event including New York Life
New Jersey, Nirvana Indian Kitchen
from Allendale and Radio Zindagi.
A more traditional Holi celebra-
tion - with colors - is being planned this
