\"LunchBox-2016CulturalExpressionsFestival\"<\/a>The world is your community; the community, your world.<\/em><\/p>\n

For the past 8 years, Fredericton has been enthusiastically celebrated the multitudes of international cultures that have become integrated into the fabric of our community. The Cultural Expressions Festival<\/strong><\/a> is the peak of that celebration. This weekend, dozens of performances from over 20 parts of the world will fill the stage in Officer’s Square, and food from all four corners of the world will tempt your tastebuds.<\/p>\n

My guest today is Hushi<\/strong>, one of the organizers behind this year’s Festival. He joins me to talk about the things you’ll be able to see, taste and do there, the preparation that goes into this year’s festival, and a bit about this year’s highlighted cultures of Iran.<\/p>\n

The 8th Annual Cultural Expressions Festival<\/strong><\/a> runs June 23-24 in Officer’s Square.<\/p>\n

To end the interview, I played a multicultural bonanza of a track: from the band Reykavictim<\/strong> who come from the Czech Republic, from an album partially written in France and recorded in Shanghai, a Chinese track called Dao Shi Hou<\/em> from the album Xiao Di Fang<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
