First Program Celebrates at the PA's Multicultural Festival
In January, over 400 children and their families made a special Saturday visit to the First Program for the Multicultural Festival, a beloved annual event celebrating the diversity and creativity of our vibrant community.
Inspired by this year’s theme, Let’s Celebrate: Festive Traditions from Our Cultures, dedicated parent and High School volunteers shared celebratory customs from 17 different cultures: African American, Australian, Bulgarian, Canadian, Caribbean, Chinese, Ethiopian, Filipino, Greek, Indian, Iranian, Jewish/Israeli, Korean, Puerto Rican, Spanish, Ukrainian, and West African. Classrooms and communal spaces throughout Little Dalton were transformed into a multicultural wonderland featuring games, crafts, photo ops, interactive activities, learning opportunities, and live performances as First Program families united for a day of joy, togetherness, and celebration!
