The 52nd Harvest Thanksgiving Celebration 2024 at the Asian Rural Institute last weekend was a fantastic success, full of joy, connection, and celebration. With this year’s motto, “Living today’s challenge for tomorrow’s harvest,” as our guide, everyone’s hard work over the past months truly paid off, and the campus was alive with energy and excitement.
Thank you to everyone who participated, helped, or simply came to celebrate with us. HTC 2024 wouldn’t have been the same without you, and we’re already looking forward to what’s ahead for next year. Together, we’re planting seeds today for a brighter harvest tomorrow!
Harvest Thanksgiving Celebration (HTC), ARI’s largest annual event to give thanks for a bountiful harvest, is coming again this year!
We will entertain you with international cuisine, cultural stage performances and hands-on activities!
