5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Navaratri is a nine-day Hindu festival honoring the Goddess forms of the Divine. This festival is marked by extraordinary pujas (Hindu worship rituals), decorations, music, and feasts. Navaratri also represents a major annual homecoming and family event that celebrates the bonds between elders and youngsters, as well as across family and community members. We are excited to celebrate this festival, which coincides with Family Weekend, together with our families and close relations. This event is open to all Duke community members, regardless of faith, and all are invited to observe the beautiful traditions of Hindu worship and understand the significance of this sacred festival.
