    First Annual Ethiopian Cultural Day Festival

    The grant will allow us to host an Ethiopian day cultural festival at an outdoor park in the City of Los Angeles to showcase Ethiopian history, culture, art, cuisine, dance, and music. The funds will pay for talent, main stage, sound system, tents, insurance, permits, and security. This celebration will offer visitors to our city an opportunity to immerse themselves in a unique celebration and provide an economic boost to the local businesses. At the same time access to county social services and health will be promoted.
