Festivals Together seeks to enrich and widen our celebration experience and to reflect the global village nature of modern society. It is a resource guide for observing special days according to traditions based on many cultures, including Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, and Sikh. It draws on backgrounds as diverse as north and west Africa, the Caribbean, China, India, Ireland, Japan, New England, the Philippines and more. Its unifying thread is our need for meaning, continuity and joy. A wonderful resource for classroom, family, or community gatherings!e Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
