An estimated 800 to 1,000 attended the travel-themed event, called “All Around the World,” which featured students dressed as “flight attendants” leading fellow students on a tour of 22 booths representing various nations and cultures. Culture Fest is the biggest event of the year for the Multicultural, Diversity and Inclusion Office.

They were spread out Thursday night inside GCU Arena and on painted circles on the Quad as colored lights flashed. To an observer … silence or some seriously off-key singing. But to the students … a fun evening.
