Genia Duncan Ellis, CEO of Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale, commented regarding this cross cultural efforts saying “Creating this calendar was important because it is the continuation of an ongoing partnership to provide a collective resource to the community. We are delighted that the partners were able to work together and successfully compile and produce a list of fun and exciting events that all occur within the Greater Downtown Area. We hope it will serve as an invaluable tool for locals and visitors alike in planning holiday events and outings this season.” This is very exciting news for Fort Lauderdale and it should certainly add to an already vibrant holiday season.
