Every festival in Nepal has a story from long ago. The Dashain Festival is based on old Hindu tales and marks the triumph of good over bad. But it’s also about the unity between families and celebrating this festival with joy. The Dashain Festival teaches us that being kind to others always prevails. The people of Nepal celebrate Dashain with great passion in their country and wherever they may live.

The Central Oregon Dashain Festival will be held on Thursday, October 3rd between 5:30 pm and 8:00 at the nationally featured High Camp Taproom in Sisters.

The evening will include:

Food and beverages will include:

We hope you can join the festivities and take this opportunity to meet other Central Oregon individuals who share an interest in Nepal and making this world a better place. The celebration will provide a great opportunity to learn more about Ten Friends and our efforts to assist, educate and empower the people of Nepal.

The event is also a Fundraiser for Ten Friends with $40 (tax deductible) of your attendance fee going towards supporting our Tilahi Village projects and programs which are focused on members of the Musahar Caste.  Representing the bottom of the Nepal caste system, they are treated as ‘untouchables’ and suffer from significant discrimination resulting in extreme poverty with minimal opportunities to improve their quality of life and standard of living. 

Registration for the event is required.
