The Pavilion of Global Cultures
-----It is the heartfelt mission of the Pavilion of Global Cultures to collaborate and partner with local, national and community organizations in order to bring quality of life improvement for those in need through awareness and assistance in areas such as health, homelessness, education and business.
-----The Pavilion of Global Culture’s stage is the place for the expression of diverse cultures through traditional customs, dances, songs and folklore on stage during the hours of 1pm – 4pm Saturday and Sunday.
-----Three years ago, the unveiling took place featuring a demonstration of South African Jewelry designers, dancers, drummers and models. Since then it has shaped into one of the International Arts Festival’s most talked about features.
-----The Pavilion of Global Cultures continues the international economic development effort initiated by the Doing Business with South Africa forum presented during the NOSACONN “Making the Connections Week:” At this forum, Ernest Kelly, founder and President of the International Arts Festival presents a consortium of speakers from various representatives of South Africa’s economic development departments to discuss fundamental processes of setting up various types of businesses in South Africa. At the Pavilion of Global Cultures, information is available for anyone interested in international trade.

The world map is the stage for many global events and collaborations between our business and community sponsors and the International Arts Festival Foundation in New Orleans and South Africa.
