Lok Virsa is the only institution in Pakistan that has been very active over the last couple of years in reviving and celebrating several cultural and religious festivals. After successfully holding the two-day long mother languages festival, the institution will celebrate Basant: there will be songs, dances, food stalls and kite-making by master artisans. Lok Virsa will celebrate the festivals of Nawroz, Holi, Diwali, Christmas in addition to Rabab and Saroz in the following months. Such festivals bring us together in a bond of love, irrespective of colour, creed, race and religion. We believe that festivals, like life, are gifts that need to be celebrated.
