Farmingdale State College
Celebrate diversity on Long Island by bringing the whole family to the 6th Annual Asian-American Cultural Festival in the spacious Multi-Purpose Room of Farmingdale State College from 11am to 5pm. You’ll be enchanted by colorful displays, costumes, art exhibits and live traditional and contemporary entertainment from various parts of Asia.
Feast on a selection of international foods at the outdoor food court. Watch exciting martial arts exhibitions. See a staged theater performance with professional singers and dancers such as the J. Chen Project. Listen to the sounds of WaFoo – the hottest Japanese jazz ensemble in the tri-state area and J-Pop and K-Pop – currently the rage in Japan and Korea. Vie to become the first Asian-American (Festival) Idol as you sing for charity (bring your own downloadable music for the karaoke machine) – with all proceeds going to Leadership Huntington, a community-based 501c3 nonprofit. There will be workshops for children, corporate and small business vendor displays, a lion dance, cultural parade, discount coupons from local merchants …and much more.
