      We recently did a show about the incredible festivals we have throughout Michigan celebrating our diversity. In addition to the great guests we had on that show, we also interviewed Dr. Jacoub Mansour the President of the Arab and Chaldean Festival.

      The festival takes place in dowtown Detroit at Hart Plaza on July 26 and 27 and is celebrating it's 52nd year. The event is the largest Arab and Chaldean cultural event in North America and features everything from traditional dancing to live performances, cultural events, and plenty of delicious food. Dr. Mansour shares what to expect at this family-friendly event.
