The Language and Culture Institute recently hosted its annual Thanksgiving celebration, bringing together over 90 international current and former students from dozens of countries to experience a cherished American tradition. Students and instructors shared a traditional Thanksgiving feast, complete with all the classic dishes.

The highlight of the event was a talent show, where students showcased their skills in music, dance, and performance. Students performed piano and flute, sang opera, and shared a variety of dances.

Instructor Michael Garrett even got in on the fun, wowing the crowd with a lithe performance inspired by multiple cultural dances.
