The CEE was an International Festival, set up in a concert and presentation format. Our goal was to give knowledge about difference cultures, specifically those that were being targeted for bullying, interest the audience in learning about these cultures, interacting with people if different cultures, and exploring the opportunity of study abroad, and immerse the audience in multicultural activities. The Henry Lea Middle School gLea Club sang, played instruments, and danced to music from Japan, Mexico, Albania, Senegal, and America. Each of the gLea Club students presented one of the countries, giving general background information, cultural context, and specifics about the song or dance they would be performing to go along with it. In each presentation the audience was also given a task to participate with the performers (i.e. singing along, moving arms in similar dance movement, clapping, stomping, etc.). My colleague Daniel Robinson and I both presented on our study abroad countries (Rome and Spain). We told the students about our experiences studying abroad, how we were able to find study abroad opportunities, and how our study abroad experiences changed our lives. I also explained a bit about the Vira I. Heinz Scholarship, how it prepared me for my time abroad, and how the students in the audience could apply for it and similar scholarships in the future. Just before the last song, the audience participated in an activity inspired by the "spectrum" activity we had in our Vira I. Heinz retreat. I asked questions like "Who speaks another language?" and "Who is from a country other than the United States?" to get the audience thinking about what makes them different. I then asked them questions that would get them thinking about what makes the audience similar, such as "Who like pizza?" "Who loves summer vacation?" and more. Overall, students in the audience expressed that they would be excited to include students of cultures different from their own and to learn about and share cultures with them. Also, almost every student raised their hands in excitement to study abroad sometime in their future.
