Diwali is one of India’s biggest Hindu festivals, celebrated with great enthusiasm and happiness. The festival lasts five continuous days, and the third day is celebrated as the main Diwali festival or ‘Festival of Lights.’ Different colorful varieties of fireworks are always associated with this festival. On this auspicious day, people light up diyas and candles all around their house. They perform Laxmi Puja in the evening and seek the divine blessings of Goddess of Wealth. The festival of Diwali is never complete without the exchange of gifts. People present Diwali gifts to all near and dear ones. Tickets are available at the INDIA Association of New Mexico or by calling 505-306-9624.

Drawing from the Maxwell Museum’s collections, Entangled Cultures presents diverse global examples of traditional vessels used in the creation and consumption of fermented foods and beverages. The exhibit begins with an overview of how fermentation likely served as a catalyst for human ancestors to develop smaller digestive systems, larger brains, and ultimately expand into new environments. It also retraces the origins of many now ubiquitous ferments, such as wine, beer, bread, and cheese. Reflections on the ever-changing nature of human-microbe relations are woven throughout the exhibit, which concludes with a peek into our fermented futures, including novel adaptations to climate change and possibilities for interspecies flourishing in the post-Anthropocene world.

Against the backdrop of Colombia’s lush, yet wounded beauty in the wake of the 1925 Cali earthquake, this historical novel tells the story of three strangers—an early 20th century photographer, a young Spanish chocolatier in disguise, and a nun with a bitter past—who enter into a perilous search for the missing owner of a coveted hacienda during an emerging cholera epidemic.
