Hello Everyone!

You are invited to participate in the Cultural Showcase which a cultural feature of Global Village!

The main idea is to showcase the world through cultural attire in a brief strut walk across the stage. Inform the audience, of what you're wearing and where its from. For fun, we'll draw questions out of a hat to ask you on a topic relating to the Olympics (don't worry they're simple questions). Want to perform a talent? You can do that too (either by yourself or with a group)! Performing is totally optional.

The Cultural showcase is open to everyone and anyone who'd like to participate =) Don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity!
