Temples around the country have ordered 20 to 50 clay murthis to celebrate chaturthi. To order yours, contact sundarikatir@yahoo.com

Proceeds from the murthis purchased go to Iraivan Temple. Paint, brushes and glitter are free.
A big group gathered and all had lots of fun. Each year the number of participants has doubled.
