The Northeast Kingdom Asylum Assistance Network (NEKASAN) invites neighbors of all ages to sample cuisines from around the globe at the Welcome Center in St. Johnsbury on Saturday September 9 from 11-2. NEKASAN assists asylum seekers and refugees with their physical, emotional, vocational, legal and financial needs as they work to establish their lives in safety here in the Northeast Kingdom. We welcome their talents and skills as they broaden and enrich the diversity of our community. Join us on September 9 to experience foods from as far away as Benin, Iran, Ukraine and Syria, prepared by NEKASAN supporters and guests. Music from around the world will provide the soundtrack, you'll learn more about NEKASAN from board members and other volunteers and join a raffle featuring beautiful decorative items from different cultures. . By donation. Please join us!
