Quote of the Week
Happy National Volunteer Week!
This week is National Volunteer Week! National Volunteer Week was established by Presidential Proclamation in 1974 to highlight the various opportunities available for those interested in volunteering. Cincinnati offers plenty of volunteer opportunities from soup kitchens, to weeding gardens, to tutoring and more! Celebrate Volunteer Week by getting out in your community and making a difference or thanking a volunteer!
Asian Food Fest
Back for its 14th year, Asian Food Fest returns to Court Street Plaza in downtown Cincinnati. This two-day food extravaganza celebrates Asian culture and cuisine. Expect a mouthwatering tour of small-plated Asian foods priced from $2-$10 and enjoy live entertainment, local craft and Asian beer, fun family activities and more. As one of the Cincy Region's fastest-growing and most culturally diverse festivals, the Asian Food Fest attracts nearly 100,000 attendees annually. Presented by Kroger and Procter & Gamble, and produced by the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber in partnership with Asianati, the Asian American Cultural Association of Cincinnati, experience the region's largest celebration of Asian food and culture like never before!
