Come join us as we celebrate the many cultures that make up our Norwich community. Our goal to increase awareness of our area’s cultural diversity, and to highlight the area’s multicultural resources.

At 6:45 pm, we will present the Lottie B. Scott Diversity Award and Community Diversity Award to a resident and organization, respectively, who helped promote peace and understanding within our diverse community.
