Program Description
Event Details
Deepavali, or Diwali, is the Indian Festival of Lights and celebrates the power of knowledge over ignorance. Join members of our community to celebrate and learn about Diwali with hands-on crafts, book readings, an introduction to yoga, and some tasty treats. This program is ideal for whole families. Arrive anytime between 1:30 and 4 p.m., and stay however long you are able. Children under 6 years may need help from a grown-up to complete some projects.
