The Aurora Public Library is hosting a family-friendly celebration called Spring into Nowruz on Sunday, March 22, 2026, to welcome the Persian New Year in Aurora, Ontario. This event gives local families a chance to experience traditional customs and music to mark the arrival of the spring season.
The gathering will take place from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the library’s Living Room area. It is designed as a space for community members to learn about Persian traditions and share in cultural exchange.
Nowruz, which means “new day,” is a festival with a 3,000-year history that celebrates rebirth and renewal. While an earlier event titled Iranian Gathering was cancelled for March 20, 2026, this Sunday activity remains the main celebration for the community.
Library staff are hosting the event to promote inclusivity and provide cultural enrichment for all residents. Participants will be able to engage in various activities centered on the traditional ways of welcoming the new season.
