Diwali, also called Deepavali, is India’s grandest and most important holiday of the year. Diwali holds great importance to Hindus and other faiths, as it honors the victory of light over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance. The Festival of Lights is celebrated by decorating homes with lamps and candles to symbolize the inner light that protects people from spiritual darkness. Over the course of five days, the observance is commemorated with revelry, family gatherings and a vibrant display of colors. #ParksAreCommonGround #ThisIsToledo #Diwali #FestivalOfLights

These parks sit on lands that were ancestral homes to Native American Tribes such as the Ojibwe (Chippewa), Odawa (Ottawa) Potawatomi, Lenapi (Delaware), Shawnee, Myaami (Miami), Wyandot (Huron), Mingo and the Wabash Nations which consisted of Peoria, Wea, Kickapoo and Piankashaws Nations. Metroparks Toledo embraces the Native Nations traditions of environmental stewardship as a critical part of the park system’s conservation mission. #ParksAreCommonGround #ThisIsToledo #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth
