International Children's Friendship Festival 2024

ARCS is excited to participate again at this year's International Children's Friendship Festival! We will share a table with members from the local Moldovan community to promote Romania and Moldova, so please come stop by!

International Children’s Friendship Festival is an event that is run by children and features performances by children. Various nationalities are represented through music, folk dancing and art. The children celebrate their international friendship through experiencing the rich tapestry of the world’s cultures.

The event is well-established and recognized in the Northwest as a volunteer-run festival with a loyal crowd and an increasing number of new children every year. The festival is annually recognized by proclamations of several elected officials in Washington State.

The event is free and open to the public.

Our reach goes beyond the borders of Washington State, all the way to the other side of the world.  Over the years we have had the pleasure to host guests performers from Republic of Seychelles, Mongolia and Mexico. They’ve come all the way to Seattle to share their culture with the children of Pacific Northwest.  Not only was this a once in a lifetime experience for those children, but it also provided an opportunity for the local children to mingle with and learn about people from very different backgrounds.

Are you interested in getting involved? We are looking for children and teenagers of Romanian or Moldovan descent who are passionate to share their heritage! Sign up here.
