Get your head wrapped!
Considering the cold temperatures, not to mention the rain, snow and hail, there was a great turn out for Turban Up! at Yonge Dundas square today. The event was organized by the Sikh Youth Federation to help raise awareness about Sikh religion and culture. There were martial arts demonstrations, food, an art exhibit, and other examples of Sikh culture, but the main event was the turban wrapping. Numerous eager and friendly volunteers were available to wrap a turban for you in your choice of colour. A few people sported black and dark blue turbans but bright colours were very popular – colours like turquoise, bright greens and blues, as well as pink, orange and red. A veritable rainbow of turbans.
