On the evening of Nov. 11, campus was bright with energy and gratitude in honor of Diwali-Tihar, the vibrant and colorful Festival of Lights celebrating the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance.🪔✨ #Diwali is one of the most significant festivals in Hindu culture, and is also recognized by Jains, Sikhs, and some Buddhists. Known as #Tihar in Nepal, the five-day festival is a time of joy, reflection, and community, marked by the lighting of lamps, fireworks, and the sharing of sweets and gifts. At Marist, International Student Services hosted a Diwali-Tihar celebration in the Cabaret with traditional food, arts, music, and dancing. It was a magnificent display and an amazing opportunity to appreciate the rich cultural diversity that makes up the Marist community!
