Festival of Nations, the longest running multicultural event in the Midwest, brings together people from a vast array of backgrounds to celebrate their ethnic heritage. Through world-class performances by ethnic dance ensembles and musicians, cultural exhibits, art demonstrations and activities, and international cuisine, this family-friendly festival provides a look into the traditions, history and journey of nearly 100 ethnic groups, and sheds light on how each one contributes to the American cultural landscape.
This year’s theme, Folklore & Fairytales,will be seen throughout the Festival. Stories truly have the ability to illuminate cultural perspectives and connect individuals like no other medium, so what better way to learn about a new culture or language than through the stories its people hold dear?
