The Cleveland Argentine community demonstrated their proud heritage at One World Day in the Cleveland Cultural Gardens. One World Day has been the official event of the Cleveland Cultural Gardens Federation since 1946. Over 40,000 people visited the gardens on One World Day 2022.
The Argentine community participated in the Parade of Flags which was moderated by TV news personalities Danielle Wiggins (Ch.3), Kelly Dobeck (Ch. 19), Tracy Carloss (Ch. 5) and Maia Belay (Ch. 8). Olympic Gold medalist Dominique Moceanu (Magnificent Seven Gymnastics Team 1996) was the Grand Marshall of the Parade of Flags and she marched with Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb and other dignitaries.
Here is a video of the entire Parade of Flags.
Maria Paula Bozoklian, Ambassador Argentines in Cleveland, said, "As the first time in several years, the Argentines in Cleveland participated this Sunday in the World Day Parade at the Cleveland Cultural Gardens. We were a small but enthusiastic group proud to represent our Nation. We had a lot of fun and appreciated the opportunity to be there with the rest of the nationalities. It was a honor for all of us to walk with our blue and white colors and our Argentine flags. We are returning stronger next year!"
