January 2023 – Holidays and Observations
Happy New Year! January is here once again! We begin a new year, and have a clean slate ahead of us with another year of memories to create.
Below you’ll find some (mostly US based) month, week, and daylong celebrations/observations. We picked those we think fit the content of this site. Maybe we missed some, maybe we added some you don’t think belong. Let us know!
I will be filling these in as soon as possible so you can learn more about each observance or holiday, but for now just enjoy the list.
