Since the first World Beat Festival in 1998, over 475,000 people - from 70 cultures - have been touched by our programs and activities. Its impact on the community continues to grow as people become more aware of, and are developing an appreciation for the incredible cultural richness of Salem and the Mid-Willamette Valley.

We still have a lot of work to do, however, and need your support.

Please consider making a gift today! No gift is too small, and your donation will help us to continue to build bridges through sharing cultural traditions.
