Ombox is a subscription service dedicated to sharing the richness of South Asian culture in a fun and informative way. We give our customers the ability to make centuries-old traditions their own by sharing stories, lessons and the meaning behind rituals, and staying away from dogma and formal structure. Our goal is to make it easy to celebrate festivals like Navratri, Diwali and Holi by providing all the essentials in a box, delivered to your doorstep. Each box includes a beautifully illustrated magazine - Indus - that explains the genesis of the festival, ways to celebrate it, and fun activities for the family.
