Meat the Team
Behind every great event is a passionate team of people who make it happen.
Our Multicultural Festival is brought to life by a diverse group of organizers, volunteers, and community leaders — each bringing their own unique background, skills, and love for our community.
We believe that the festival isn’t just about one day of celebration — it’s about people working together year-round to create something meaningful.
