Mehndi (Hindi: मेहंदी, Urdu: مہندی) is the art of painting hands or feet, or the body, with a paste made of dried henna leaves. Mehndi art has been popular in the Asian and Arabic countries for almost two millennia…and if anything its popularity is only increasing. The event will take place at 6 PM next Tuesday, on March, 27 at the Museum of Pop Science (4 fl., Dormitory 22, Svobodniy, 76D).
