Start Date
On November 9, we hosted a Diwali Celebration in collaboration with the South Asian Families of Wilmette.
Our program began with Culture in Motion dance studio founder, Reemlee Chowdhury, leading a fantastic Bollywood dance class. More than 200 people joined us afterwards for diya painting, fireworks painting, stories, rangoli coloring, paper lantern making, and mehndi, followed by delicious treats.
Thank you to Shefali, Henna By Parvin, Reemlee and her dancers, and all of our volunteers and helpers for their hard work partnering with us!
Thank you to everyone in our community who helped make this celebration so joyful!
