How do you celebrate Kwanza?

Answer 1

What the other person put was for Hanakkah. But, I don't know how Kwanzaa is celebrated. I know it lasts for 7 days and the first one was celebrated from December 26, 1966, to January 1, 1967. The candle holder used is called a kinara.

Answer 2

Kwanzaa is a 7 day festival celebrating the African American people, their culture and their history. It is a time of celebration, community gathering, and reflection. A time of endings and beginnings. Kwanzaa begins on December 26th, the day afterChristmas, and continues until New Years Day, January 1st.

Each evening a family member, usually the youngest child, lights candles in a special candle holder (kinara) and discusses one of the seven principles of Kwanzaa. On the sixth day, which falls on New Years Eve, family and friends get togetherto enjoy a large feast and to celebrate their history, culture, and the upcoming new year.
