EDITORS COMMENTS
Striding out in the procession. . Khushi Ka Mela, a festival of Asian arts, captures the vibrant spirit and cultural diversity that filled Thornton Lodge. This print takes us back to 25th March 1991 when the community came together to celebrate their heritage through workshops, storytelling, theatre, dance, and an enchanting children's procession. Organized by Thornton Lodge Nursery School and members of Chol Theatre, this festival served as a platform for children from various schools in the area to immerse themselves in Asian stories collected from within their own community. It was a testament to unity and inclusivity as these young minds not only prepared for the festivities but actively participated with joy and enthusiasm. The image showcases children striding confidently alongside each other during the parade. Their beaming smiles reflect both pride in their culture and excitement for what lies ahead. The colorful costumes they wear symbolize the rich tapestry of traditions that make up this multicultural neighborhood. This snapshot encapsulates childhood innocence intertwined with cultural appreciation. It serves as a reminder of how festivals like Khushi Ka Mela fostered understanding among diverse communities while nurturing creativity and imagination among its youngest participants. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this photograph is more than just a visual memento; it represents cherished memories etched into our collective history – memories of celebration, learning, friendship, and above all else: khushi (happiness).
