Makar Sankranti is a Hindu Festival which celebrates the transition from winter to spring. Along with the seasonal transition from harsher, colder winters to more temperate springs, Sankranti also represents a new beginning to many Hindus.

Every year, HSA hosts several free events that are open to the entire university and the surrounding Austin communities. In addition to these events, there are weekly meetings to further explore what it means to be a Hindu in the midst of a busy college life.
