A VERY SUCCESSFUL CULTURAL FAIR

Over 1000 people came this past Saturday to Glen Echo Park to visit Au Pair In America’s Cultural Fair.More than 250 au pairs had set up tables in the Spanish Ballroom and proudly showcased their country.

Kids learned new words in many different languages,played games they never heard of before and watched dancers perform folkloric dances on the stage.

Everyone had a fabulous time!
