Global Series is back this year! The series is going with the theme of "Explore the Treasures of Africa."

Participants will learn about different African cultures through presentations, music and traditional food.

They are kicking off the series with USA Day, a partnership of the International Culture Team with the Holcombe Global Series, to bring a unique experience where students can learn about American diversity through presentations about the US states.
