Parade of Flags One World Day Cleveland Cultural Gardens August 25, 2024
The 78th annual One World Day was another amazing event. The Parade of Flags continues to be a highlight of the day. Over 1500 marchers from over 50 heritages marched in colorful costumes carrying flags. In a sign of unity, the MCs for the Parade were from the 4 major TV stations in Cleveland (left to right in the photo): Tino Bovenzi from Fox8, Kelly Dobeck from WOIO, Jiovanni Lieggi from WKYC and Tracy Carloss from WEWS.
