America is a multicultural nation, which became home to many people of different nationalities, where one may see a diversity of cultures and traditions. Slavic Festival, which took place in Makline on September 29, is one of the examples of cultural expression.
Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia are three sister-countries, as named by the journalists, which satisfied the eyes of the curious people by exhibiting a unique Slavic spirit. Russian balalaika, samovar with bagels, tasty Ukrainian pot stickers, clay jugs, embroider pictures, etc. became an embedding of native places for Slavic people, who had to leave their countries and move to a foreign land.
All people could check out and buy books in Belarusan language, beautiful straw-dolls, real emblem and flag of Belarus at the Belarusan table. Famous trio of Kazakoy's Family will be long remembered among the visitors of the Festival. Representatives of the Belarusan - American Assosiation as well as few New York and New Jersey's friends of Belarus carried out all the organizational duties for the Belarusan kiosk Iryna Askirka
