Joy to the World 2024

---

Preparations are ongoing for the 4th Annual Joy To The World- A Global Celebration Festival, and it will indeed be a weekend of Joy! We feel the deepest gratitude for the generous support and sponsorship by the San Antonio Area Foundation, Aloha Events, Arte y Pasion and for Rolling Oaks Mall providing the venue. These organizations’ philanthropy assists HFSA in providing the infrastructure for staging presentations that creates a valuable opportunity for local community groups to showcase their distinct cultural practices through the sharing of their arts and traditions. With these community partnerships who have a mutual love for cultural diversity, we strongly believe our events contribute to our citizenry’s growth in cross-cultural understanding. They also serve in supporting local entrepreneurs and local charitable causes.  Please contact us if you wish to donate as a Sponsor and/or participate as a Vendor or Performer. This is a very family friendly indoor event with free admission and free parking.
