The Events DC International City Food Festival is three delicious days of events in partnership with the city's diplomatic corps. Washington DC has a strong history as a nexu of global dialogue, offering locals nd visitors access to a rich range of cultures - a legacy that initially inspired the weekend's flagship event, The Events DC Embassy Chef Challenge. Built on the idea that food brings us a
ll together, the iconic event is back this year, now complemented by a full weekend of celebrations, making culinary diplomacy accessible to all ages. Taking place on the heels of the United Nations General Assembly meetings and the World Bank and International Monetary Fund annual meetings, International City offers a timely launch point to travel the globe to understand and honor other cultures, all in the heart of DC. International City looks to showcase international diplomacy through the universal lenses of food, drink, performance, fashion, culture, and music. To highlight the urgency of understanding and peace, Events DC enlisted Kharkiv, Ukraine-based artist Olga Shtonda to create the festival's key illustrations, graphics, and artwork. Shtonda's work combines textures, colors, and patterns as she finds inspiration in nature amidst war in her home country and, in her words, hopes to make people smile."
