Multicultural Fair
We are so pleased to announce that Sage Hill’s annual Multicultural Fair event is moving to a virtual format this year and will be held on Saturday, March 13!
As many of you may know, the Multicultural Fair is an annual event hosted by the Sage Hill Parent Association that typically includes live entertainment and food booths with cuisines from around the world. It is a wonderful opportunity for students, parents, faculty and staff to proudly show off their cultures and bring global awareness to our greater community.
Unfortunately, last year’s event was canceled out of an abundance of caution due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But we knew we could not let another year go by without some version of the Multicultural Fair, which has become a trademark event in our community. Our commitment to keeping Multicultural Fair alive led us to plan an exciting day of virtual cooking classes, hosted by Sage Hill community members.
This is where we need your help! We are seeking volunteers who would like to virtually host one of these virtual cooking classes and demonstrate, step by step, how to make a dish that represents your culture. There will be two different time slots: 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM. The maximum time to create each dish should be no more than one hour.
If you are interested in volunteering to be a virtual cooking class host, please complete this Google form no later than Friday, January 29.
Once we have selected all of our volunteer hosts and dishes, we will send out further information to the community that explains the schedule of the day, the different cooking class options, and how to sign up to attend one or both of the time slots. Participants will receive a shopping list beforehand and, on the day of the event, you will cook along live from the comfort of your own kitchen.
In this new era of virtual events and Zoom classes, we think this will be an amazing way to connect with one another, learn about cooking in different cultures, and eat some delicious food!

All Sage Hill students are invited to participate in the Multicultural Fair Art Contest, sponsored by the Parent Association. The winning artwork will be featured on all Multicultural Fair-related publicity. The winner will also receive a $50 gift card and have their original artwork framed and returned to them.
Artwork should be done on any 2x3-ratio paper (12 inches x 18 inches), and the following mediums are accepted: digital, colored pencils, acrylic paint, poster paint or collage. No charcoals, pastels or chalk, please.
The winning artwork will be digitized, and the event details will be added so there is no need to include any text on the artwork. Please include your name on the back of the artwork.
On-campus students can submit their artwork directly to Mr. McMahon or Mr. Gunnin. Distance learning students can leave artwork at the Sage Hill security guard gate (please make sure your name is included on the submission). If your artwork is digital, it can be emailed directly to Mr. McMahon or Mr. Gunnin.
The deadline for submission is Thursday, February 11.
If you have any questions about submitting your artwork, please contact Mr. McMahon or Mr. Gunnin. For questions related to the contest itself, you may also contact Multicultural Fair Chair Ling Li at ling.930@hotmail.com.
