    PeopleFest! is a “series of free community events and programs to celebrate the unique cultures represented in Eden Prairie.” 

    • The Tarangini School of Dance.
    • PeopleFest! Party attendees could check out storytellers for about 15 to 20 minutes through the human library feature.

    Groups performing included Harisen Daiko, Tarangini School of Dance, Tamil Sangham, Mexico Azteca, Academy of Young Leaders, and Nrityavidyalaya.

    Residents were encouraged to pick up a “Guide to Culture, History & Cuisine” at events or to visit the PeopleFest! Website. The book explores the food and history of Eden Prairie. Residents are also encouraged to share their experiences with #PeopleFestChallenge on social media.
