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.
