The Hindu festival of “Kumbh Mela” is the largest gathering of humanity and happens every twelve years during specific planetary positions on the Hindu calendar.

During May 2016, Darebin residents are joining millions of devotees to take a dip in the sacred Kshipra River, in Ujjain, India.

 Darebin Ethnic Communities Council in partnership with interfaith communities is running an information session about this important Hindu festival.

 After the information session participants will be invited to walk from Darebin Intercultural Centre to Thomastown as a symbolic representation of walking towards the path of co-existing and enriching each other within the community.
