An example enclosure includes a base, a plurality of walls extending from the base, and a top disposed opposite the base and connected to at least one of the plurality of walls. The enclosure also includes a light assembly configured to illuminate an interior space of the enclosure. The light assembly includes a diffuser, a heat sink connected to the diffuser, a substrate connected to the heat sink, and a light source connected to the substrate. The diffuser may be connected to one of the top or the base such that the heat sink is spaced from the one of the top or the base. Additionally, the top is moveable toward the base to transition the enclosure from an expanded state to a collapsed state.
