Festival of Lights

Join Elk Grove's Multicultural Committee in celebrating the Festival of Lights. Celebrated by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and Buddhists -- although for each faith it marks different historical events and stories -- it represents the same symbolic victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil. Experience cultural dances and refreshments with your friends and neighbors. Celebrate the diversity in Elk Grove and learn more about the many cultures that make up the community.
