Medfield Together and Bellforge Arts Center Present: CultureFest

In partnership with Bellforge Arts Center, Medfield Together invites you to join us on Oct. 8, 2022 for CultureFest. This FREE family-friendly festival aims to bring our community together in celebration of and learning about the customs, traditions, artwork, music, and food of diverse people within and around our town.

“The incentive for CultureFest was twofold: to celebrate diversity by centering the cultural traditions of an array of people and to learn about multiculturalism in a fun and engaging atmosphere,” says Medfield Together Steering Committee member Lauren Zembron.

Everyone is welcome to attend this fun day out that will include performers, kids’ activities, and ethnic food trucks. CultureFest runs from 10 am to 3 pm at Bellforge Arts Center, located at 45 Hospital Road (https://bellforge.org/getting-here/). There is plenty of free parking and visitors are encouraged to bring blankets or lawn chairs to enjoy the festival.

"We are thrilled to be partnering with Medfield Together for CultureFest and to provide the opportunity to celebrate so many cultures through art, dance, music and food," says Jean Mineo, Bellforge Arts Center's Executive Director.

While tickets are free, registration is encouraged for weather-related and other event updates: https://bit.ly/BellforgeCultur...
