The Salem CultureFest 2008 will be going on all day Saturday, July 26th and Sunday, July 27th. This year we have one central location for stage performers by the "gazebo". This family friendly festival will showcase much of the talent found in and around the Salem area, while also sharing the many cultures found locally. In addition, we will start each day with a family friendly parade. You are encouraged to join in and enjoy the diversity found right here in our community. We have over 50 vendors participating with wares ranging from framed art and photos, several types of jewelry, pottery, balloons, toys, carvings, candles, hand-loomed scarves, food, shirts, hats, and more. Most of what you will find at this festival is handmade, available directly from the artists who crafted them. Below is the latest schedule of performers. In addition, there are many other events and activities you will find throughout the festival, face painting, chair massage, and more. [schedule may change without notice]
