About this Event

As the evening grows dark, many cultures welcome the harvest season with light. Families across Asia, hang paper lanterns for the Mid-Autumn Festival, light diyas, and hang star lanterns at Diwali, and gather around lights in celebration of thanks. Decorate a paper lantern with something you are thankful firm and help us fill the courtyard with a warm glow.
