Community members are invited to experience food samples, entertainment and more at “Flavors of the World,” Trine University’s 56th annual iNight (International Night) on Saturday, April 5.
The event, sponsored by the Steuben County Community Foundation, Gurukul Overseas and the Carnegie International Students Institute, will take place from 3-6 p.m. in the MTI Center and is free and open to the public.
This year’s iNight will include African drum demonstrations and lessons, henna tattoos and a caricature artist.
Main-floor entertainment will feature a mariachi band and Scottish bagpipes. Activities will include the opportunity to paint different nations’ flags, bingo, a STEM project for kids and karaoke.
Food trucks and locations inside the MTI Center will offer samples of food representing different countries.
iNight enables students, faculty and staff from other nations to share their cultures with the Trine campus and local community. The event also provides an opportunity for all to experience and celebrate Trine’s growing international population and embrace its members as part of the community.
