2018 L&I Multicultural Celebration Event

The 2018 multicultural celebration event was held on December 12 at L&I’s headquarters. This event featured 7 top non-English languages spoken by L&I’s customers: Chinese (Mandarin andCantonese); Khmer; Korean; Russian; Somali; Spanish; and Vietnamese. It was a fabulous exploration of food, music, and fun from around the world.

The audience had a chance to try chai tea (atradition in Somalia), lucky candy from China, lollipop from Spain, and munch on shrimp chips. Audience also had a chance to have a picture taken in the ruins of a famous Cambodian temple, a henna tattoo on hand, have their names printed in Chinese characters, play the Spanish version of bingo, or try an instrument from Vietnam. The full performance line-up includes Mariachi Fiesta Mexicana Band, Flamenco guitar, traditional Chinese dances by our own Olympia Area dance team and other performance (Erhu, Flute and Tai Chi), Russian folk singings, and Vietnamese fashion show.

Thanks to L&I for sponsoring this event, and all volunteers and performers who made this event so successful!
