[UPDATED with photos] With the help of seniors Jie Han, Beth Peregrine, and Emily Chu, the Japan booth at the Uni High Culture Fair was well equipped with sushi — for the first 10 minutes or so.

Gargoyle videographers Sindha Agha and Lauren Piester were on hand Friday, Oct. 12, to capture the sights and sounds of the Uni High Cultural Fair. Watch their video and relive the West African drumming, Brazilian capoeira, and dancing in the street that made the fair such a memorable event.

Gargoyle photographers Katherine Allen and Anna Gooler were on hand Friday to capture the sights of the Uni High Cultural Fair. In Part 1 of their photo essay, they documented the many cultural and culinary delights inside Uni Gym. In Part 2, they go outside for some West African drumming, Brazilian capoeira, and lots of dancing.

With more than 30 booths offering knowledge and culinary delights, this year's Uni High Cultural Fair was a huge success. Held both inside Uni Gym and outside on a closed-off Stoughton Street, the fair lasted two hours and drew hundreds of participants — not just Uni students and faculty, but parents, members of the University of Illinois community, and local residents who wanted to share insights into their own cultures. Katherine Allen and Anna Gooler were on hand to photograph the fun.
