About

Take a break from midterms and light up your day at Crafts of Light! 🪔✨ Join us for an interactive cultural celebration honoring Diwali, Tihar, and Bandi Chhor Divas—traditions celebrated across South Asian communities. Often referred to as the “festival of lights,” these occasions share common cultural roots while carrying unique, vibrant traditions. Get hands-on with craft activities rooted in the festival's rich history, learn about the significance behind each tradition, and enjoy delicious samosas and lassi! Whether you are looking to relax, learn something new, or connect with the campus community, all are welcome to swing by for this fun, celebratory study break.

Hosted by CAPISE (Center for Asian Pacific Islander Student Empowerment), Student Union, and International Student & Scholar Services (ISSS)
