May this long-held tradition continue to remind us of the roots of discrimination, racism and hatred based on ethnicity, religion or the colour of one’s skin. As we welcome the annual Pesach seder to family dinner tables around the world, let us join our Jewish friends in saying “Never Again.”

It is celebrated by both Sikhs and Hindus.
For Sikhs, in addition to its significance as the harvest festival, kirtans are sung and Gurdwaras are visited. Many hold community fairs, kirtan processions, raise the Nishan Sahib flag, and gather to socialise and share festive foods. Vaisakhi also observes major events in the history of Sikhism and the Indian subcontinent that happened in the Punjab region. Vaisakhi marks the birth of the Khalsa order by Guru Gobind Singh, the 10th Guru in 1699. Later, Ranjit Singh was proclaimed as Maharaja of the Sikh Empire on 12 April 1801 (to coincide with Vaisakhi), creating a unified political state. Vaisakhi was also the day when Bengal Army officer Reginald Dyer orders his troops to shoot into a protesting crowd, an event which would come to be known as the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. This incident proved influential to the history of the Indian independence movement.
For Hindus, Vaisakhi also marks the first day of the month of Vaisakh, celebrating the Spring harvest. Some also consider Vaisakhi to be the date for the Indian Solar New Year, while others consider the previous month of Chet as the date for the New Year.

Originally named Lexiko and then Criss-Cross Words, Alfred Mosher Butts eventually settled on the name Scrabble. The amateur artist and unemployed architect developed the word game in the midst of the depression. Still, it wasn’t until 1948, a final name change and a trademark that Butts finally began to produce the game.

With this short creative arts school holiday workshop for kids aged 8-13 years, we’ll explore, through photos, paintings, visual materials, and using all of our senses, concentrate on the visual and develop our children’s abilities to see things differently. In this workshop, we’ll challenge our students to THINK by giving them tools to find ways of representing any concept. We’ll explore possible reasons for WHY we chose one way of creating and not other, understanding how trends, culture, generation or mood affects our choices. We’ll also traverse time and space to learn basic knowledge about the HISTORY of the Visual Arts.
