The noontime festivities included sumptuous Indian food, music, dancing and a raffle. Diwali falls on the new moon day between October and November and is also known as the ‘Festival of Lights.’ Ganapathi gave the welcome speech, and noted the celebration "brings the SLAC Community an understanding and appreciation of different cultures through food and music, which has no bounds."

Participants from around the site enjoyed the festival as they learned more about the Indian culture.
