The annual “Music Beyond Borders: International Music Festival” is scheduled to present a rich display of local and international cultural artists at the Schine Underground on Wednesday, Nov. 14, from 6-8 p.m. Coordinated by the Slutzker Center for International Services within the Division of Student Affairs, this longstanding tradition is part of SU’s celebration of International Education Week and features music, poetry and dance. The event is free and open to the public.
Tickets are available at the Schine Box Office. After the performance, audience members are invited to join the artists in a complimentary dinner buffet of diverse ethnic foods.
