The annual family friendly event at Corydon, IN brought
different countries at the square – World on the Square. The program starts
with the Native American group with their uniforms and presenting their patriotic march.

providing cold water when it is hot and plastic covers when it rains.

Throughout the program, there is
music and entertainment. Flamenco dancers, local musicians, kids dancing, face
painting, martial arts show, etc.
This is a very friendly event that introduces the locals to the world around them. People come to each booth to ask questions, learn a thing or two and mostly amazed that their city is indeed multicultural.
This is an event to look forward to every year. For more information about this event, visit www.worldonthesquare.org.
