Three-hour trip ‘round the world
For the second year in a row, the Five Colleges are throwing an international festival on the Amherst Common. Organized by the UMass International Students Club, the free event features cultural displays — such as dancing, singing, and performances — as well as ethnic food, informational booths, and children’s games and activities representing 20 nations. Last year, 1,000 people attended the afternoon event.
Come hungry and with an open mind.
5-College International Festival: Saturday, April 9, 1-4 p.m. Free. Amherst Common, Amherst.
