SS02 Cultural Awareness for Everyone (C.A.F.E.), c. 1986 - 2014

Cultural Awareness for Everyone (C.A.F.E.) Club was created in 1986-87 to "help ease the transition of incoming and minority students". The club's activities included creative cultural dinners and in 1994-95, the club announced their intention for the first "Cultural Night" event, a night where "people of all cultures from Nightingale would express their cultures in various forms such as dance, music, art, literature, and drama" (from Spectator, Sep. 1994). Cultural Night was originally a small event that club members and their families participated in. The Parents Association now plans this event that the entire Nightingale community enjoys annually.
