Pohela Boishakh, the first day of the Bengali calendar, is a national festival in Bangladesh, celebrated with unparalleled enthusiasm, especially in Dhaka. It marks a fresh start, a time for reflection and new beginnings, embodying the spirit of Bengali nationalism and cultural pride. Historically, it’s rooted in agricultural traditions, signifying the start of the harvest season, but today, its significance extends far beyond that. The day is observed with colorful processions, folk songs, and traditional performances.

In partnership with The Creperie Cafe, the MIIS Board Game Club is excited to host Board Game Community Night, a vibrant gathering to unite MIIS students with the wider Monterey community. Known for its mouthwatering crepes, paninis, and other delicious offerings, The Creperie Cafe has been a beloved local spot for years. Recently, the cafe has started hosting board game nights on select evenings, creating a welcoming space for fun and connection.
