Kalamazoo Russian Festival - Unique Russian Cultural Event in the Midwest

Located midway between Chicago and Detroit (marked by the star), Kalamazoo is rapidly becoming an important center for business, education, culture, and many other activities. Click on the sign above for more information, and we are in Eastern Standard Time zone!
Main sponsor of the Kalamazoo Russian Festival is Kalamazoo-Pushkin Partnership, a citizen group formed in 1992 to help promote relationships between Kalamazoo and its sister-city Pushkin (Russia). *We believe* **that the personal relationships among the peoples of the world are the single most important factor in promoting peace, understanding and respect. We believe by facilitating and encouraging the explorations of our various cultures, by aiding those in need and sharing knowledge, we will create relationships that promote strong bonds of lasting international friendship between our countries.
