Each year, American students showcase the culture and foods of various states during USA Day. The event begins at 6 p.m. today at Holcombe Hall.

Explore the United States' varied state cultures this month at the Holcombe Global Series' signature program, USA Day.

The event starts at 6 p.m. today in the Holcombe Hall living room.

There will be interactive booths offering tasty samples of dishes from different states, such as Louisiana, Pennsylvania, Maine, Texas, Arkansas and more.

This collaborative event allows Americans to share their life experiences and diverse cultures within the United States with the campus community.

This event is open to all within the community. Attendees are also encouraged to bring friends and engage in a night of fun, learning, activities, food and more.

The Holcombe Global Series is a shared effort between University Housing and the Office of International Students and Scholars. These offices present community events each semester that showcase the global experiences of students who have studied abroad and the cultures of international students at the U of A.
