Fayetteville/Cumberland County – A week long lectures series will highlight the
international nature of our community.
Throughout “International Voices and Perspectives,” a cross section of
Fayetteville State University Fulbright Scholars and Cumberland County Schools’
Visiting International Faculty (VIF) teachers will share experiences growing up
in their home country. They will also reflect upon what their
opportunities in America mean to them. The event was planned to compliment
the 30th Annual International Folk Festival, which is produced by the Arts
Council of Fayetteville/Cumberland County.
“International Voices and Perspectives” is produced by members of the Diversity
task force of Cultural Connections, the Fayetteville Area Convention & Visitors
Bureau’s (FACVB) task force devoted to developing and presenting the cultural
heritage of our community. “The Diversity task force looked for an
opportunity to highlight the international perspectives that are part of our
community of history, heroes and a hometown feeling,” said Ron McElrath,
Co-Chair of the committee. “And we couldn’t think of a better time to
offer this programming than just prior to the International Folk Festival.”
The public is invited to all lectures. Locations and times are as follows:
