Google’s blog quoted, “The colors, food, festivities, and nostalgia of Diwali are shared through new online exhibitions from partner institutions including Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya, Indian Museum, National Museum and many more. There is also plenty of hands-on fun for families with a Diwali coloring book with artworks inspired by traditional Indian paintings!

With the help of a little Google magic, we hope our Diwali @ Home experience adds to your festive cheer as you celebrate in your own way this year, on the Google Arts & Culture app for iOS and Android.”
