WHAT TO EXPECT
Colorful Celebration: We will have Holi pigment powder to throw, so expect to get covered in color! The powder won’t stain and is non-toxic, gluten free, but we do recommend dressing in clothes you don’t mind getting dirty just in case.
Outdoor-Only Event: This event will take place outdoors on the MET Lawn, so dress appropriately! The MET building will be open, but students who have participated in the event will not be allowed indoors to protect the site. If you’d like to enter the building, we recommend bringing a change of clothes or coming early.
Fun Food and Drink: Hungry or thirsty? light traditional food will be available on the MET Lawn as well as refreshing drinks but will not be allowed to enter back into the building.
