🎉 This #HinduHeritageMonth, communities across Canada came together to celebrate the richness of Hindu culture! Over the next few days, CoHNA will share highlights from these amazing events. 🪷 Kicking off with Red Deer, AB, where CoHNA & Chinmaya Mission partnered with the @rdpl for month-long festivities. Mayor @MayorKJohnston inaugurated the celebrations on Nov 9! Councillor Lawrence Lee joined as well, participating enthusiastically with the vibrant Hindu community. 🎶 The event featured a mesmerizing concert by the Sarb Akal Music Society of Calgary and was supported by ISKCON Red Deer & Hindu Cultural Society of Central Alberta patrons. 📽️ Watch the highlights: youtu.be/JY3mMd0H0ws
