Fourth Annual Eid Community Potluck

You are invited to the Fourth Annual Eid Community Potluck!

Fireside Lounge, Randall Student Center, Saturday, March 21, from 1-3:00 PM

Capital Area New Mainers Project and the University of Maine at Augusta (UMA) will partner to host a fourth annual community potluck for Eid al-Fitr. This will be an opportunity for all members of our local community to gather, share about traditions in Maine, and show solidarity within Maine’s diverse communities.

Eid al-Fitr, translated as “the festival of breaking the fast”, marks the end of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan. This festival is a particularly significant time for the community to get together to share gifts, cultural foods, and special treats.

The potluck will be in the Fireside Lounge, in the Randall Student Center. All are welcome to join, and attendees are encouraged to bring a dish to share.*

The event is free and open to the public. Donations will be accepted for Capital Area New Mainers Project, which works to foster inclusion and thriving integrated communities in central Maine.

*No pork, please. If you kindly provide a list of ingredients in your dish, that would also be appreciated.
