    Event description

    Celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi, a cherished Indian festival dedicated to Lord Ganesha, by bringing home your own idol of Ganesha.

    This wonderful celebration brings families and communities together for joyful singing and traditional delicacies. The festival culminates with the immersion of the clay idol into a water body. But ever wondered why? Not sure how to quite answer this when the kids ask?

    In this workshop, children aged 5-12 will craft their own eco-friendly clay Ganesha, discover various home celebration traditions, and explore the rich story and symbolism of this beloved festival. Join us at a nearby location and bring Ganesha into your home!
