    Toledo Sister Cities International Festival 04.18.15 Reynolds Clinic A Welcome from the International Festival 2015 Co-Presenters On behalf of Toledo Sister Cities International and The University of Toledo, we welcome you to the sixth annual International Festival. This year's event marks the third year of festival partnership between The University of Toledo (UT) and Toledo Sister Cities International (TSCI). We have a day filled with the celebration of our diverse cultures as well as our many commonalities. Who can resist the sights, smells and tastes of great food; colorful and entertaining performances; unique cultural exhibits; a language corner where young and "young at heart" can practice with a "pro"; and interactive activities for children, students and families alike? We are certain that everyone will find something of interest that will mark this as a memorable annual event, and bring you back year after year. The International Festival was brought back to Toledo six years ago by a group of dedicated leaders within TSCI who recognized the cultural diversity of our region and wanted to celebrate both the uniqueness and similarities shared among those living in our metropolitan area, composed of northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan. UT and the Center for International Studies and Programs (CISP) share great pride in knowing that this partnership with the International Festival experiences great success, reflecting CISP’s mission to facilitate cross-cultural interaction among students, faculty and staff that leads to better global understanding, an enriched personal experience and a more peaceful world. Similarly, Toledo Sister Cities International serves to act as a bridge to foster international activities promoting world peace through education, culture, and economic and business development in an atmosphere of understanding and mutual respect.
