SUMMARY:Rangoli Workshop and Clay Diya Making
DESCRIPTION:Discover the beauty and meaning of traditional Indian art 
 through Rangoli and Diya making\, hands-on activities rooted in 
 creativity\, celebration\, and cultural heritage.\n\nRangoli is a 
 centuries-old art form traditionally created during festivals like Diwali\, 
 weddings\, and special occasions. Using geometric patterns and vibrant 
 colors\, participants will explore symmetry\, color harmony\, and the
