Color Festival Hawai`i.  The modern American version of a traditional Holi Festival celebrated every spring in India. It is a celebration of the victory of good over evil and of the arrival of spring and harvests to come. In the spirit of inclusion, celebrating the beauty of diversity and the uniqueness of each and every child, this spectacular and colorful event will feature energetic, nonstop, live music for dancing from headliner Rayland Baxter of Nashville TN, DJ Boomshot, Anuhea, and Yum Yum Beast; all leading to the throwing of colors! Fun for the whole family. Helpful tips: Wear white so you can leave colorful. Souvenir event T-shirts will be available for purchase at the event or in advance by clicking HERE. Wear comfortable shoes/sandals you don’t mind getting full of colorful powder (The powder is just colored cornstarch and most of it will just blow right off unless you get wet). Suggest you wash your clothes right after the festival. Protecting your eyes with sunglasses or goggles is strongly recommended. Bring a dust mask or bandana, especially for those with respiratory issues. Bring plastic bags for your dusted clothes or to cover your car seat after event. Maui Arts & Cultural Center, Events Lawn, One Cameron Way, Kahului.  1 to 6 p.m.  For tickets and information call (808) 242-7469 or visit www.mauiarts.org.
