On Wednesday, Aug. 6, 2025, the LALACS Department together with OPAL and the Dialogue Project joined Crossroad Farm in celebrating the Jamaican Independence Day. Farm workers, Dartmouth Faculty, students, staff, and local community got together on this sunny day to celebrate. The Hopkins Center of the Arts invited their guests "Las Cafeteras", the East Los Angeles band, to perform and the Lebanon, NH, restaurant The Karibbean prepared delicious curry goat and jerk chicken, served with rice and beans, for everyone to enjoy.
The Valley News published the article "Cultivating Connections" on Friday, August 8, 2025, about this event.
