On March 19, 2016, the Bahais of the City of New York came together to celebrate their “Naw-Ruz” (New Year) event. The event took place at the Assembly Hall, The Riverside Church in Manhattan, New York. It was attended by Bahai members and their friends and relatives from and around the New York, New Jersey area. The celebration featured prayers and performances followed by a dinner and dance party. Pictures by African Events.
I am so pleased that AfricanEvents.com was so kind to attend and report on the recent Baha’i Naw Rúz celebration in New York City. Your participation meant a great deal to me, and I believe was certainly in the spirit of an important principal of the Baha’i Faith, “The earth is but one country and mankind its citizens.” –Bahá’u’lláh
