This Friday, April 9, 2010, we will have amazing food from Latin America and Europe (Cici’s Pizza) as well as Ethiopian from Queen of Sheba. We now have a Silver Sponsor in the Brink Foundation and are excited to welcome the Coalition of Immokalee Workers’ Slavery Museum, which is generating a great deal of dialogue and interest across Florida!

Additionally, we have Fademasters III, Starbucks at Westshore Plaza and various art. This show began as a small food festival put on by youth in Town n Country and now encompasses an indoor/outdoor food and art show, complete with musical and dance performances.

There is still limited space for vendors, and priority is given to those whose art, trade or food is complementary to our event.
