The Langar@DU is organized and led by students in partnership with the Denver Sikh Gurudwara and all are welcome to a hot, free, vegetarian meal served and shared in community.
DENVER, May 31, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- On Saturday, May 31st, the University of Denver, in partnership with Colorado Sikhs, invites the Denver community to the fourth Langar@DU event - an opportunity to take part in a communal meal known as Langar.
In Sikh tradition, Langar is a way to provide all people, regardless of background, religion, or social status with a free meal. Through Langar, millions of people are fed every day around the world. This meal embodies the selflessness and service that are fundamental tenets of Sikh teachings. By hosting Langar@DU, the message of respect, connection, and community is spread to all those who choose to attend.
The Langar@DU is organized by students enrolled in the university's course: Inclusive Community: Cross-Cultural Collaboration in Action. Students work throughout the academic quarter with the Denver Sikh Gurudwara and community partners to build a product that embraces the values of Langar while creating an engaging and inclusive event to celebrate community.
Attendees can expect free food and fun activities between 11:00am to 1:00pm on Carnegie Green, located directly south of the Anderson Academic Commons which sits at 2150 E Evans Ave, Denver, CO 80208.
