What is the I-House World Tour?

We are touring the world at I-House with a series of celebrations that explore the intersection of culture, migration, and identity through music, dance, food, art, and conversation.

Celebrations can include performances, visual art, and educational workshops – fostering cultural awareness, promoting global appreciation, and nurturing a sense of unity.

Each event will delve into a different culture, offering a deep immersion into its rich traditions and contributions to our community.
