For my multicultural experience, I went to an Easter Sunday non-denominational Christian sermon at one of the most widely known churches in my Oklahoma City, Crossings Community Church. The service consisted of many elements, from live orchestral and choral music to the incorporation of multimedia video streaming.

For my Cultural Encounter project, I visited the Orlando Museum of Art (OMA). The museum hosts an exhibit called “Art of The Ancient Americas”, which consists of remnants from the indigenous peoples of North, Central, and South America.
