The event included gorgeous clothing and delicious food vendors, creative cultural art booths and lots of people in agreement with the importance of arts and culture for our planet. Music was provided by reggae artists Sister Carol and Rob Symeon. There was a heartfelt Land Acknowledgment by the Red Warriors. The theme this year was the “Call for Unity for Climate and Food Justice” to help with food insecurity and climate control. The event was filled with attendees who enjoyed information about helping the community through various avenues, including holistic medicine and music and art for real healing.
