Celebrating 19 Years of Kaleidoscope! 🎉

Last week, the St. Lawrence community came together to celebrate 19 years of Kaleidoscope! Started in 2006 by Victor Kai-Rogers '08 from Freetown, Sierra Leone, the annual tradition celebrates the many cultures represented in our community through performance and art. Hosted by the I-House and International Student Services, the event wrapped up World Languages Week with an exciting showcase of global music, dance, fashion, and food. 

A heartfelt thank you to all who made this celebration possible, but especially to those who took the stage to share their customs and traditions with us. ❤️🤎
