“Each year, we create a sense of a village celebrating its incredibly rich diversity.”

“The Marshfield Cultural Fair was an overwhelming success! We estimated an attendance of over 1,000 people, and we had 36 exhibitors, and several food vendors, in addition to many performers who took the stage to share their music and dance skills. The largest indoor winter event in Marshfield continues to thrive thanks to the Cultural Fair Committee, UWSP staff, faculty and students! Additionally, we appreciate the collaboration of the Marshfield clinic and all of the sponsors (especially the Marshfield Area Community Foundation) that make this event a remarkable achievement!”
– UWSP Campus Executive Anthony Andrews
The Cultural Fair started in 2004 and each year people of all ages and many cultures participate in sharing stories, music, performances, and food. The Marshfield Area Community Foundation continues to sponsor this enriching event through a multi-year community grant.
“The cultural fair is just a dynamic opportunity to bring community members together to celebrate cultural differences and the rich tapestry that this community affords,” UWSP Chancellor Thomas Gibson said. (cited here)
