DAYTON, OH (WDTN-WBDT) - Soin International and the Dayton International Festival, Inc. (DIFI) present the 39th Annual International Festival, A World A’Fair May 18-20 at the Dayton Convention Center.

Since the 1970’s the festival has been celebrating diversity in food, music, dancing, ethnic dress, exhibits and cultures from around the world.

This year’s theme is Folklore Around the World and features two Native American performers.

A new partnership between the festival and The Miami Valley School has resulted in the establishment of the first diversity Art Contest.

The International Festival, A World A'Fair, was the vision and dream of Father Gabriel J. Rus, SM (1910-1979) and Aldona Ryan of Lithuania.
