Terrific Tuesday - Diwali

This October half-term, Chiltern Open Air Museum's Terrific Tuesday will be looking at Diwali - the Hindu festival of lights.

Diwali symbolises the spiritual victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance and the festival takes place each autumn.

With drumming workshops, dancing, dressing up, storytelling and craft activities, all the family can join in the celebration.

The crafts will include making Diyas - candle holders that are a traditional part of Diwali celebrations, and Rangolli designs - a multi-coloured decoration that symbolises wealth, joy, and prosperity, as well as thanksgiving to deities.

All Terrific Tuesday activities are included within the admission price.
Open 10am to 4pm.
