ABOUT
A Celebration of Cultural Diversity
We love our vibrant Milton community and want to celebrate the rich cultural diversity of its residents! A group of us came together to showcase our cultural heritages so our town can learn and enjoy our traditions. We know we are divided politically, so we want to creat a space where all residents can join together for fun and learn about each other, and perhaps realize we are more alike than different.
All events are free and open to the public. We encourage you to attend events to learn about other cultures, as well as celebrate your own.
