Celebrate Nowruz

Nowruz (or Norooz) marks the arrival of the new year and the first day of spring. It is an ancient tradition rooted in renewal, reflection, and hope. It is celebrated in many countries, including Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan. 

During these difficult and uncertain times, we recognize that many in our community may be carrying complex emotions. With that in mind, this event will be a space for thoughtful gathering — an opportunity to come together through art, cultural expression, and shared presence.

We will host an art exhibition intended as a community-centered event to honor tradition, resilience, and connection in a meaningful and respectful way.

On Thursday, March 19, from 4:30 to 7 p.m., please join us for Nowruz at Mission Hall, UCSF Mission Bay, organized and hosted by Woman Life Freedom at UCSF.
