The Program in Russian and East European Languages and Literatures cordially invites you to our annual Celebration of Maslenitsa When: Friday, March 4, 2022, 1pm - 2:30pm Where: Outdoors on Voorhees Mall (near the statue of William the Silent!) ; in case of bad weather, AB 4052 (Comparative Literature Seminar Room)
During this frightening and uncertain time, we hope that this year’s Maslenitsa will give us a chance to come together as a Rutgers community and to be among friends as we look toward brighter days. Maslenitsa is a holiday celebrated across Slavic cultures, and this year we will place a special accent on Ukrainian traditions, in part by adding some delicious varenniki to our table. We warmly encourage members of the Ukrainian, Polish, Russian-Jewish, and Russian Clubs, students of the Russian and East European Program, and others, to come join us, and to bring along friends. http://www.sras.org/russian_holidays Russian food (bliny!) and drinks will be served. Come enjoy the food and good company, and learn about this Russian holiday.
