Anjali Krishnan of the Golden Gate Garba dance company leads a crowd in a dance at Tiburon’s fifth annual Diwali celebration Nov. 7 at Zelinsky Park. The free afternoon marking the festival of lights celebrated by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains also drew families for live drumming, music and dancing, henna hand-painting, face painting, games, popcorn and Indian food trucks. The Town Council approved $10,000 for the event in August on the recommendation of the town’s Diversity Inclusion Task Force.
