Be part of another great time at the Cleveland Cultural Gardens in Rockefeller Park, Cleveland on Sunday, September 20, 2009 when Cleveland’s Polish community hosts the 2009 One World Day in the Polish Cultural Garden at East Blvd and St. Clair Avenue.

At 2:30 PM, line-up for the colorful parade of nationality groups, in costume, followed by the always inspiring , citizenship ceremony for new immigrants at 3:20 PM.  You’ll be amazed at where they come from as well as happy to share in their joy, and that of their families, when they become American citizens.

Bill Hronek’s Czech Brass Band will be entertaining you during the line-up before the parade so you can polka in the street, if you like.  During the program see the Piast Artistic Folk Dance Ensemble and the Syrena Polish Dance Ensemble perform.  Listen to the Slovenske Slovak Singers, too. Food for sale from that reknown Polish cafe and store, Seven Roses Deli.

Better yet, here’ s your chance to see not only the impressive Polish Cultural Garden with its fountain and cultural icons, but surrounding Gardens and their unique blend of landscaping, cultural figures and fountains as well.

Parking is free and easily accessible on East Blvd and St. Clair Avenue.  Entrance to this event is free and open to the public.

Spend an afternoon at one of Cleveland’s unique events, in an internationally famous Gardens.
