3rd Annual Turkish Festival

The festival features a wide array of cultural programming, including:
– Traditional Turkish music and dance
– A mesmerizing Whirling Dervish performance
– Interactive art workshops (such as ebru/paper marbling and calligraphy)
– “Grandma’s Chest,” a curated exhibit showcasing nostalgic Turkish artifacts
– A dedicated children’s area designed to spark intercultural curiosity
– A Turkish Bazaar, artisan stalls, and a silent auction offering handmade crafts and cultural goods

This celebration is more than a cultural showcase—it is an educational experience that brings global traditions into the heart of our local community, enriching perspectives and fostering a deeper sense of belonging among residents of all backgrounds. It also serves as an important platform for artists and cultural practitioners of Turkish heritage to share their work and stories with the local community.
