Join us for a special community gathering celebrating Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr! Ramadan is a meaningful time of reflection, spiritual growth, and togetherness, culminating in the joyful celebration of Eid al-Fitr—the holiday that marks the end of fasting and invites us to come together in gratitude with family, friends, and community.

The evening begins with a vibrant community bazaar, free and open to the public, featuring local vendors offering a wide variety of goods.

As the sun sets, join us to break the fast with a delicious halal Iftar meal (tickets available for purchase). Iftar is the meal eaten to break the daily fast during Ramadan. For community members with financial need, a limited number of confidential reduced price ticket are available; please contact [email protected] to inquire.

Also, enjoy the beauty of henna art, fun activities for kids, and an evening filled with culture, connection, and celebration. Special thank you to Chashni Cafe and Qahwah House for sweetening our celebration with their delicious desserts and chai!
