Onam Celebration CANCELED

CANCELED due to Kerala Flood Relief Efforts
Aug 25, 2018 3:00pm-7:00pm (ended)

Onam is an annual cultural festival with origins in the state of Kerala in India, home to Amma's ashram. This festival falls in the Malayalam calendar month of Chingam, which in Gregorian calendar overlaps with August–September. It is a harvest festival that commemorates the Vamana avatar of Vishnu, and the subsequent homecoming of the legendary Emperor Mahabali.

We will follow the traditional Saturday schedule followed by a traditional Onam fest on banana leaves.  Please join us!
