Culture Fest 2023, a celebration of diverse talents and cultures found on the SUNY Fredonia campus and in surrounding communities, will be held in the Williams Center Multipurpose Room on Monday, Nov. 13, from 6 to 8 p.m.

The evening’s headliner will be Buffalo hip-hop comedian Julian Russell, who’s known for witty urban humor. “He can speak about anything,” said Multicultural Support Services Director David White. “He’s the kind of guy who can ask for things out of the crowd and can almost create a routine out of any subject; he has his own brand of comedy.”

Featured campus performers will include the dance team Enfusion, a cappella group Premium Blend and Irish dance troupe Rince. Other student groups will perform, and raffles and assorted games are also a part of the evening.

Food catered by the Faculty Student Association and outside vendor Taqueria Mexicano is free, but tickets are required for the food and can be picked up at the Fredonia Ticket Office in the Williams Center. The number of food tickets is limited.

All Intercultural Center student groups will be participating and engaging in the evening’s festivities, Mr. White added.

“I encourage everybody to come out; it’s going to be a great event with food, fellowship and fun,” White said.
