We cordially invite you to join us for The Cultural Diversity Day of Massachusetts, a celebration of art and culture that promises a mesmerizing day of cross-cultural exploration. At The Cultural Diversity Day of Massachusetts, we bring together individuals from all walks of life to engage in meaningful conversations and collaborate towards a better future. Our goal is to celebrate traditions, art forms, and cuisines, promoting learning and breaking down barriers to embrace our shared humanity. By embracing diverse voices, we cultivate fresh perspectives and work towards positive change in addressing pressing challenges. It is an event where people and organizations of different cultural backgrounds come together to showcase their unique heritage through various art forms such as food, music, and dance.
We invite you and your community to take part in creating an inclusive society that values diversity, peace, understanding, and respect. Each community is expected to appoint a liaison who will be responsible for coordinating with the organizing committee. Additionally, each organization will need to prepare a table for the cultural showcase and will be expected to put on a cultural performance that lasts between 5 to 8 minutes. It is essential that the organizations actively promote and involve their community in the event. Please be sure to RSVP for the cultural event by May 1, 2024, using this form. *Due to limited space at the State House, we may not be able to secure a spot for your organization or make necessary arrangements after the designated deadline.
