International Culture Team Welcomes You to Join Them for Their First Meeting

The International Culture Team is a dynamic team open to international or U.S. students and scholars, faculty and staff members who want to learn about and share culture. International and American participants share culture through demonstrations, cooking, displays, clothing, music, dance, games, sports, etc.

The International Culture Team's goals are to bring the world to our campus and community, break stereotypes, put not well known countries on the map and develop a community that seeks to learn from each other. You don't have to go abroad to experience the world and appreciate our international and study abroad returnees who bring the world to us. Team activities can be found at ictevents.uark.edu. Join us for our opening meeting at 5 p.m. today, Friday, Aug. 26, in Hillside Auditorium room 206!  

Faculty, staff or community members who want to make a request to have presenters visit a classroom or event can find the request form at ict.uark.edu.
