This month, around the globe, people are celebrating their differences and we are too, right here in Midland County.
During Global Diversity Month, the
Midland Area Community Foundation invites you to come out to take part in a variety of different events designed to introduce you to new cultures and experiences.
Join the community wide scavenger hunt that helps you discover some fun and interesting art throughout the county. You'll be introduced to a variety of pieces that you can see in person and take a selfie with. Share your photos to earn points and maybe even win a prize! Visit the
Public Arts Midland Facebook page to post photos and get more details.

Midland Center for the Arts on Wednesday, Oct. 23 to check out the performance by Alex Cuba, a Cuban-Canadian singer-songwriter. Alex, a Grammy award winning musician performs his sweet soul music in both English and Spanish. His show is one you won't want to miss!
