We’re just about a month away from Arkansas City’s favorite multicultural event—and the excitement is building.

Today, we’re proud to highlight one of the sponsors helping make it all possible: V.J. Wilkins Foundation.

Events like this don’t come together on their own. They take planning, people, and the kind of community support that shows up behind the scenes. Sponsors like this play a big role in bringing the day to life—from the music and performances to the food, activities, and everything in between.

We’re grateful for their support and their investment in a celebration that brings our community together.
