Mark your calendars for an evening that promises to be a vibrant celebration of Greek culture, tradition, and freedom. On Saturday, March 23rd, the Annunciation/Evangelismos Elkins Park Church will host its highly anticipated Annunciation Feast Day and Greek Independence Day Dinner Dance. This festive event seamlessly blends the commemoration of two cherished occasions.
At the heart of this celebration lies the observance of the church’s name day, paying homage to the annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Simultaneously, the event will honor the 203rd anniversary of Greek Independence Day, a momentous milestone celebrating the nation’s hard-won freedom and rich cultural heritage.
The church’s community center will be transformed into a lively hub where attendees can immerse themselves in Greek traditions’ sights, sounds, and flavors. The evening’s entertainment will be nothing short of spectacular, with the renowned Apollonia Greek Band from Washington, D.C., taking center stage. These talented musicians will fill the air with the infectious rhythms and melodies of traditional Greek folk music, inviting revelers to tap their feet, sway to the beat, and perhaps even join the revelry on the dance floor.
As attendees indulge in the culinary delights and live entertainment, they’ll have the opportunity to connect with fellow community members, share stories, and forge new bonds over a shared love for Greek culture, tradition, and the pursuit of freedom.
