Park University will be hosting its annual International Festival as part of International Education Week 2021. This event, scheduled for November 19th, will take place in the University's Park Avenue area within the Academic Underground on the Parkville Campus, from 5 to 8 p.m.

The festival promises to be a vibrant celebration of cultural diversity, featuring information booths, performances, cultural activities, and fashion shows representing countries from around the globe. The list of participating countries includes Brazil, China, Germany, Ghana, Iran, Jamaica, Japan, Kenya, Malawi, Mexico, Nepal, Pakistan, Russia, Vietnam, and Uzbekistan.

Park University's international students will take centre stage, showcasing the unique and diverse characteristics of their homeland. The event will culminate in an international buffet, serving foods from each continent, with Park students on a meal plan able to eat for free with their Park ID during the buffet, which will be served from 5 to 6 p.m.

For those interested in attending the buffet, the cost is $10 per person. For more information about the event, please contact Julia Baer, the associate director for international education, who can be reached via email at julia.baer@our website or by phone at (816) 584-6857.

Admission to the festival is free and open to the public. This annual event is organised by Park University's Office of International Student Services and is a fantastic opportunity to learn about different cultures, broaden your horizons, and enjoy a delicious meal.

We look forward to seeing you at the International Festival on November 19th!
