Eurasian Association of DFW
Sharing and Celebrating Eurasian Cultures
NEW YEAR & CHRISTMAS SEASON
​
Orthodox calendar is different than the Roman calendar used in United States. Therefore, our Christmas celebration falls two weeks after the traditional Christmas here.
RUSSIAN WINTER FESTIVAL & MASLENITSA
(lead by EADFW and SMU)
March
​
This joyous festival has been observed for centuries in the Russian culture.​
WWII VICTORY CELEBRATION
May 9​
WWII has impacted the Russian people for generations. Many stories of great courage and sacrifice are recorded in countless books, songs and movies. For this sacrifice we are forever grateful, remembering and personally thanking the survivors of the war, whose numbers are dwindling each year.
​
INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY
March 8​
​
This Mother's Day equivalent has become a day to celebrate women and mothers all around the world.
​​
EASTER CELEBRATION​
April / May
Like Christmas, the Easter holiday is tied directly to the Orthodox calendar, and so this celebration of Jesus' Resurrection falls on a different day from the U.S.
