Diwali, the "Festival of Lights," is one of the oldest and one of the most important festivals in India. This year, The City Library invites you to celebrate Diwali at home with family activity kits and an online virtual celebration. You can pick up your Diwali Kit at any City Library location beginning Wednesday, November 24. Then, join us on Vimeo on Saturday, December 4 for our virtual Diwali program, with Indian music, dance, and a ceremonial lighting of diyas — lamps that ward off darkness and ignorance and symbolize the victory of good over evil.
