This upcoming Saturday, April 5th, the Seymour Middle School will be hosting an event created by the Mayors Youth Council and being helped run with Leadership Jackson County called Crossroads of Culture.

The council came together earlier this year to talk about an event they could run to help bring Seymour together, so they came up with an idea to bring multiple cultures together to show what all we have here in Seymour and that while we have differences we also have so many commonalities.

Leadership Jackson County later joined them and helped come up with the idea of sponsors needed and that culture could be more than just one’s ethnicity and country.

The event will feature booths with every culture and they will have foods, pictures, items, and activities from their cultures so they can talk about what is different about there’s but how it is also similar. There will also be different kinds of events, performers, and music going on throughout the event.

If children show up to the event they will be given a “passport” where they then need to go around to all the tables listed, get them stamped, and they turn them in for a chance to win a prize at the end.

There will also be food trucks present at the event for more options if you can’t find anything you like such as, The 250 Grill and Grillo’s.

The event runs from 5pm to 7pm at the middle school and both the groups running the event will be happy for who ever shows to learn more about our Smalltown.
