DFW International Community Alliance—Bringing Immigrant Communities Together

Lots of interesting things happening in Dallas, Texas. I recently came across the website for the DFW International Community Alliance, a network of organizations serving the immigrant communities in the region. In most of these communities the members are either first or second generation Americans.

The goal of the alliance is to "build mutual understanding and respect by linking diverse international cultural communities".

To this end, the alliance publishes a cultural calendar highlighting all the global inspired events in the DFW area.

Current listings include Feng Shui, French lessons, Congolese films, Argentinian tango classes and Celtic harp concerts. There is something for everyone with many opportunities to learn more about new cultures and of course to enjoy your own.

Check out the calendar here and try something new this week.
