The festival season is upon us here in Fort Wayne. It's time to celebrate the city and its rich cultural diversity with a taste of Arab Fest. The organization's president, Rema Addrayie, is excited to welcome the community to this year's festival, and promises a full two days of family friendly activity in its Headwaters Park West location, including a return of the Dabkah dancing performances this year, and the ever-popular camel rides. WBOI's Julia Meek sat down with Addrayie, to learn how the event has grown since it got its start five years ago, and what else the festival goers can look forward to this year. WBOI Artcentric is brought to you by WBOI’s own Julia Meek and Ben Clemmer. Our theme music is “Me voy pal campo'' by KelsiCote. Our administrative assistants are Olivia Fletter and Keegan Lee. Our production assistants are Monica Blankenship, Steve Mullaney, and Sydney Wagner.
