University of Cincinnati students celebrated Holi Festival, Saturday, April 28, 2012. Translated as the “Festival of Colors,” Holi is a traditional holiday celebrated by Hindus and Sikhs. It is a celebration of Radha’s love for the Lord Krishna (Hindu god). Radha applied colors to her skin to usher in the spring, a season of love, prosperity and abundance. The festival was one of many events held at UC during Worldfest.
