🌍🍚 What an incredible day in Clarkston!

Looking back at these photos from the first Clarkston International Rice Festival, what stands out most isn’t just the amazing food, music, performances, or activities. It’s the people.

At the Clarkston Community Center, creating spaces where people feel welcomed, connected, and like they belong is at the heart of what we do. Seeing so many cultures, families, neighbors, and friends come together here was a beautiful reminder of why that matters. People shared food, learned about one another’s traditions, danced, laughed, and simply enjoyed being together. ❤️

A very special thank you to Mayor Beverly H. Burks and the City of Clarkston for their vision, partnership, and hard work in bringing the inaugural International Rice Festival to life. The Clarkston Community Center was proud to partner with the City and open our doors for a celebration that brought so much of our community together in one place.

Thank you to all of the sponsors, community partners, chefs, vendors, performers, volunteers, City staff, and everyone behind the scenes who gave their time and energy to make the day possible.

And most of all, thank you to our community for showing up! Even a little rain couldn’t stop Clarkston. You came ready to taste, dance, connect, celebrate, and enjoy the day together.

Congratulations as well to Chef Chauncy, representing Liberia, whose Liberian Jollof Rice was voted the community’s favorite and earned him the festival’s Best Chef honor! 🇱🇷🏆

These photos capture only a few of the moments, but they tell a story we’re proud of. Different cultures and traditions came together around one table, with a shared sense that everyone belongs.

This is community. This is Clarkston. And this is what we’re proud to be part of at the Clarkston Community Center. 💚

We’re already looking forward to International Rice Festival 2027!

On Saturday, April 25, volunteers from Rise 'N' Reach, in collaboration with Rayo Events, spent the day bringing new life to the Clarkston Community Center Foundation’s edible garden and outdoor space.

Together, they planted blueberry bushes, refreshed garden beds with mulch, and painted picnic tables used by families, youth, neighbors, and community programs throughout the year.

The result was more than a refreshed space. It was a reminder of what community care looks like in action: people working side by side to make the Center more welcoming for everyone.

Thank you to Rise ‘N’ Reach, Rayo Events, and every volunteer who helped make this day possible. Your work will continue to grow here. 💚

Last Saturday, the Clarkston Community Center was full of energy. The space was alive with youth, ideas, and real conversations about the future.

We had an incredible group of young people join us for the Youth Displacement Project, where they took time to talk through challenges they’re facing in their communities and schools, and started mapping out what’s next for them. It was thoughtful, honest, and inspiring to witness.

A big thank you to Professor Pegah Zamani and the team from Kennesaw State University’s College of Architecture and Construction Management for leading this work and creating space for these important conversations.

We’re also grateful to the amazing volunteers from Rise 'N' Reach for bringing great activities and distributing sporting goods to our youth. Your energy and generosity made the day even more special.

This is what community looks like. Showing up, supporting each other, and creating space for growth.
