One World Day festivities happened on Sunday, August 29, 2021. After a year of distancing, social and physical, all groups parading and spectators were brimming with excitement. Even the heavy at times rain did not deter artists or audiences from socializing and watching the performances. It was apparent that culture and diversity are necessary for great entertainment and emotional well being of our grater Cleveland area. Please check out our gallery.
