Check out our Culture Fest website here.

Discover new cultures and traditions from around the world through presentations, food, and entertainment. The festivities will begin with international cuisine, catered by various local restaurants. Alongside the tasty cuisine, we will have student-run Educational Booths where they can showcase their culture in the form of presentations, art, textiles, food, and more! From there, we will move into the entertainment portion of the night. There will be a cultural Talent Contest and a Fashion Show of traditional apparel.
