About this adventure
The Dunwoody Nature Center's forest lawn hosts a family-friendly nighttime Diwali (Festival of Lights) celebration. Presented by Stage Door Theatre in collaboration with local Indian traditional arts groups, the event features traditional Indian opening dances, enchanting mythological story readings for children, and hands-on workshops for kids to paint oil lamps (Diya Painting) and create Rangoli ground patterns. At dusk, children will collectively light hundreds of eco-friendly small lamps on the Nature Center's forest lawn. The core area of the Nature Center has accessible pathways, and the forest resting cabin is equipped with restrooms and a diaper changing station. As it may get cool at night, bringing a windbreaker and flashlight is suggested.
