The Commissioners and the County's Cultural Celebration Task Force invite you to a free festival celebrating cultural diversity in Dauphin County.  Sponsored by Capital Blue Cross, this event will bring together our region's diversity and cultures as well as celebrate and increase awareness of our vast differences and commonalities.

The event will offer cultural food & performances, craft vendors, Dauphin County Human Services, Systems of Care Youth Fest, Professional Development, Sports & Games, Children's Corner, and more. 

Children's Corner - Dauphin County Drug and Alcohol Services and Dauphin County Social Services for Children and Youth present a vibrant and fun-filled space for kids of all ages. This year’s theme, "Color Your World," invites children to express their creativity through a variety of crafts, hands-on art activities, and interactive fun. It’s a joyful, safe space where imagination takes the spotlight—come join us and let your colors shine! Children’s Corner sponsored by UPMC and UPMC Health Plans.

This is a FREE event but bring along some spending money to shop with the vendors and enjoy ethnic foods from a variety of food trucks. Bring your lawn chairs. This is a free event and no tickets are required.

Wear your white!  We're asking attendees to dress in white in honor of Frankie Beverly’s legacy.
