Students, residents and visitors will be able to join in one of the biggest event in Amherst for the Spring 2017 on Saturday, April 08, 2017 to celebrate and raise awareness of the colorful cultural diversity within our community. UMass Amherst International Students Club and many cultural registered student organizations from all of the Five College Consortium (UMass Amherst, Amherst College, Mount Holyoke College, Smith College & Hampshire College) will be able to participate. In these volatile times, events that promote diversity are of utmost importance to be able to understand the significance diversity brings into our community. We want to send out the message of our belief that differences breed not conflict but understanding. This will be done by giving the opportunity to achieve the dream of traveling around the world in one day with our collaborative cultural booths, contemporary performances, exclusive souvenirs and handmade goods from your favorite countries, as well as enjoying our local vendors’ authentic food. Exclusively, there would be more activities for kids such as arts and crafts provided by Office of Family Resources and UMass Craft Center.
