Attendees are from diverse cultural backgrounds and the setting offers a positive engagement across communities.  Typically, these events draw working professionals, local officials, business owners, students from area universities/high schools, and retired international affairs experts. When international leaders are in town, they usually take part as speakers. A multicultural artistic performance is also part of the event!
