The Melawati campus celebrated Hari Raya on Friday, August 26, 2016! It was a day for our community to gain an insight into one of the biggest celebrated festivals in our host country, Malaysia.

Several workshops and demonstrations were scheduled for the community ranging from a hands-on traditional Malaysian cuisine cooking experience, cultural art creation, playing traditional Malaysian games, and a variety of traditional Malay cultural dances.

Students, staff and faculty looked fabulous donning their traditional Malay clothing. This special event, hosted each year, enriches student understanding of local cultural traditions. When the day was over, our students walked away with a deeper knowledge of an important cultural celebration in Malaysia.
