Holi is a spring festival which is often referred to as the festival of colors or the festival of love. Holi is an ancient Hindu religious festival, which has become a popular festival celebrated throughout South Asia.
Smith’s South Asian student organization—EKTA—stayed true to tradition this weekend by providing colors for Smith students to play, chase, and color each other.
EKTA means “unity” in several languages spoken in South Asia. Smith’s EKTA works to bring members’ languages, cultures, faiths, and identities together to form a close community of South Asian students at Smith.
