Welcome to our seventh annual celebration of the Spring Festival of the Egg! We hope that your families and friends welcome spring with the Nationality Rooms Committees as they have share with you the customs of their ancestors. Enjoy egg decorating, palm weaving, the art of St. Brigid's cross, Easter customs, and many more.
On behalf of the University of Pittsburgh, the Nationality Rooms Programs, the many Nationality Rooms Committees who participated, and with special thanks to Lyon Ziebak and Karen Lue, let's celebrate spring and mark the 95th anniversary of the Nationality Rooms and Intercultural Exchange Programs.
Thank you - Dziekuje
