Description

Dear members of the Fermilab community and families,​

Join the Fermi Asian Pacific Association (FAPA) as we celebrate the Festival of Lights, Deepavali! Come join in the joy of this special occasion with vibrant rangolis, lantern-making, mehendi, and a delicious spread of Indian cuisine and sweets. The evening will shine even brighter with a cultural showcase featuring music, dance, and performances by the Fermilab community. Let's celebrate the triumph of light over darkness together!

You're encouraged to wear festive attire to enhance the celebratory atmosphere.

Additionally, we welcome you to contribute a "cultural dish" to share with the community, and it doesn't necessarily need to be of Indian origin. To participate in the talent show, please reach out to Sudeshna Ganguly at sganguly@fnal.gov and Baisakhi Mitra at ​bmitra@go.olemiss.edu​.

Please note the change in the venue this year! We will be hosting the event at the Kuhn Barn.

Wishing all of you a very joyful and illuminating Deepavali!

Warm regards,​

FAPA leadership team​​
