NotesSubject Note: The Enfield Heritage Fair has been held at the John F Kennedy Middle School since around 2008. Organized by volunteers and members of the Enfield school system, the expo event aims to foster understanding, knowledge, and celebration of the many diverse cultures of the town. Foods, arts and crafts, interactive games and performances from many different ethnic groups are showcased. EnfieldKite, an early childhood educational initiative, has been involved in the event organization. CCHAP advised the organizers on possible participants from the cultures living in the Enfield area, including the Somali Bantu chant group, a group of women who dance and sing songs reciting the Koran. CCHAP documented artists at this event in 2018 (2015.196.1422 and .1504).

Additional audio, video, and/or photographic materials exist in the archive relating to this event and these artists.
