Let's Go Fly a KIte
February 17, 2012
It is not just because we have had a lot of windy days this past week that kite flying comes to mind. Sunday, the Edward-Dean Museum and Gardens in Cherry Valley will be hosting the annual Kite Festival and Basant Celebration. We know what kites are but we may not be familiar with "Basant". It is the first month of the year on Indian and Chinese Calendars. The public is invited to the presentation by the Indian Association of Inland Empire and the Virsa American Punjabi Club of kite making, kite flying, poetry reading, dancing and other activities associated with the celebration of this holiday.
The event is free and will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on February 19, 2012. The Edward-Dean Museum and Gardens are located at 99401 Oak Glen Road in Cherry Valley.
