Saturday’s 32nd annual Multicultural Fair – held for the first time in three years, under finicky skies – brought throngs of visitors to campus. The event is sponsored by UMW’s James Farmer Multicultural Center. Photo by Suzanne Carr Rossi.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Multicultural Fair is back! After a two-year hiatus due to COVID, the colorful, festive, crowd-pleasing event returned to the University of Mary Washington’s Fredericksburg campus Saturday. The nexus may have shifted from Ball Circle \u2013 sacred site of Commencement, and current incubator to baby grasses \u2013 to Jefferson Square, but the familiar sounds and scents wafted down Campus Walk, which was filled with people, dogs and vendors.<\/p>\n

The sun peeped from behind the clouds every now and then, and random raindrops fell, but none of the activities were dimmed.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was great to host the Multicultural Fair in person again,\u201d said Marion Sanford, director of the James Farmer Multicultural Center, sponsor for 32 years of this annual spring event. \u201cIt was wonderful to have the amazing vendors and dynamic performances throughout the day.\u201d<\/p>\n
