Can you pass a United States citizenship test? + Family Art Project

International Institute of Buffalo will offer visitors of Canalside sample U.S. Citizenship tests. See if you could pass a modern-day test, like the ones our new immigrants must pass to become naturalized American citizens. 

This is a unique exercise to highlight the work that goes into gaining American citizenship today. 

--

Kids and families come together at Canalside to celebrate their families' ethnic heritage. International Institute of Buffalo will supply various art tools, and each family will decorate one cloth square (approximately 6x6 inches) with what their heritage means to them. At the end of the commemoration, the squares will be connected to form one giant tapestry/quilt for display for all to see!
