The Ethiopian New Year Celebration (Enkutatash) is an important festival for the Ethiopians as it also symbolizes the advent of good harvest weather. After months of torrential pour, the month of September sees clear skies and fresh, clear, beautiful atmosphere. The highlands all teeming with flowers and the land looks like it is made of clear gold as the Meskal daisies bear flowers in the season.

Purpose of the Ethiopian New Year Celebration

This Celebration will be a way to connect Ethiopian adoptive families with other families and to connect these families with the Greater Ethiopian Community in the DC, Maryland and Virginia (DMV) area through the celebration of the rich Ethiopian cultural traditions.
