The mission of the Multicultural Art Fair is to provide a platform for artists of diverse cultures to showcase their talents and share their unique perspectives with the community. At this family friendly event, we believe that through art we can bridge cultural divides and build stronger connections between people.  Decorate a cookie (while supplies last), visit a caricaturist, shop local small businesses and eat at Kravn food truck, all while enjoying performances from local artists.

Since inception, BLAC is determined to make an impact. The core of the organization’s efforts is to bring fresh ideas and passion to a range of activities. The mission at BLAC is to unite the community through building critical consciousness and cultural competence foregrounding the aspirations of individuals.
