Mesa Multicultural Festival
Tuesday, February 11, 2025
*Free event, with a suggested $5 per person donation*
Mesa PTO, Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI), and FET committees are planning an exciting community-wide multicultural event to celebrate all the cultures represented at Mesa! Enjoy sights, sounds, and flavors locally and from around the world as Mesa families, teachers, and community members come together to celebrate the diversity of cultures that make up the Mesa student body. We will be celebrating our differences in culture, language, religion, gender identity, art, sports and other interests. Students and families, we welcome you to showcase what is meaningful to your family's cultural identity as we provide opportunities to learn about each other’s culture through music, dance, fashion, and, of course…FOOD! Kids can fill out a Multicultural Festival Fact Book at the event to enter a raffle for gift cards to Sweet Cow. A food truck will be on site for an easy dinner!

Host a Table
Please fill out this form if your family is interested in hosting a table which represents your culture. Your culture can be international, regional, or any other culture with which your family identifies.
There are many ways to host your table:
- providing a small food item
- teaching/showing a favorite sport, dance or other activity
- doing a simple craft/art project
- modeling local clothes
- displaying decorations
- teaching about the history of your culture
- exhibiting music/instruments from your culture
- sharing a favorite holiday tradition
- or any combination of these things.
The idea is for your family to show off aspects of your culture which excite you and make you proud! Together we can create an engaging, educational event that not only highlights the food, music, art, and folklore that makes us each unique but amplifies the collective richness and resilience of our community.
Please note if you are hosting a table you do not need to give the donated fee for your family for entrance to the event, unless you want to donate.
