World Beat Gallery & Festival/Salem Multicultural Institute

Festival happening Every year June last weekend. Good to see multi cultural events at one place with nice lake view and boat race. Kids enjoyed a lot of fun and food

These photos are it. That's the whole museum. The lady there was nice though and gave my boys some coloring pages.

The state st entrance into parking lot which is for handicap and marigold event performers denied me to park with my placard eventhough behind the man was a sign stating it was for both. During Friday nights opening this lot was 2/3 empty due to not being allowed to park. 2nd the BEST POT handicap toilets had no t.p. nor hand sanitizer in the 2 I tried to use. 3rd the music was amped up so loud people were leaving because of it. This is a family event w/ small children listening. I was lucky enough I had ear plugs in my purse to use .this amphitheater is only 6 levels high. NOT THE MODA CENTer let's protect our families hearing

Drove 50 minutes to see the WB festival. Regrettably, it wasn’t as good as I had imagined. Stage performers were not professional singers and dancers and the Philippines music and dance were quite boring. I found the Chinese performance was better. The Spanish paella was delicious! The rest of the food were horrible! I don’t think I would try that again. If you’re going to charge - I don’t mind paying more for Professional Performances.

The gallery always has interesting displays that are very educational. It is carefully curated. The festival is amazing and was especially wonderful this year

What a fun experience! Can't wait for next year. Note- bring a blanket for the grassy area and/ or a camp chair.

I love Cultural Events. Celebrating Japan. Loved their Sushi making class.

Top rated organization, focusing on the celebration of the world cultures.
