The Slutzker Center for International Services is hosting the International music festival at Hendricks Chapel at Syracuse University wednesday, November 17th. The concert features traditional music from places such as China, Korea, Palestine, Turkey, and India, as well as traditional dances, poems, and unique instruments. Event sponsor Elane Granger says that she believes that it is absolutely essential for overall peace that people, especially Americans, understand the role that other cultures play in what makes America unique.
The Slutzker Center for International Services has already held 6 events this year. Each event holds a specific theme that is reinforced daily throughout the week with events, meetings, lunch ins, or concerts like the International music festival. The theme for this week is transforming students into peacemakers of the world. Event sponsor Elane Granger says she hopes for every seat to be filled by the end of the night but if the people are excited and engaged about the event, how many people show up does not matter.
