On Friday, April 11th we’re all in for a special treat when Coastal College and the Robert Abbott Institute host the third annual International Festival that brings people of all cultures together.
From 2:00 – 7:30 p.m. you’ll be able to enjoy a large variety of delicious foods from different cultures…..
Music by some very talented people like the fabulous Phil Morrison Trio. Dancing, art, music…all of the Universal languages that connect us all with their energy.
Tajonyx, aka Carlton Dawson, the fabulous young musician from Columbus, Georgia will be on hand to get you moving with his soulful, soothing sounds.
Family fun is available for the young as well as the young at heart and admission is free! Children will be delighted by the huge green dragon that will make its appearance. Hip Hop and R&B dance lessons will be fun for all.
New to the festival this year is the CultureEXPO that will feature information on the culture’s of several countries. The student’s involved in this part of the festival see this as a growing concern as plans are made to share this exposition with schools throughout Southeast Georgia.
Artists and Artisans will be showing their wares with plenty of beautiful creations available to purchase.
A special treat will be offered up by the students in Coastal’s culinary department in the form of tastes of the Mediterranean. You’ll get delicious samples of dishes the students will be preparing and serving in their restaurant on Jekyll Island that will be opening soon.
This is a wonderful festival that combines all of the special things that bring different cultures together. Plan to attend and experience the magic!
