1990s
CULTURE

The ethnic heritage of citizens began to be more widely appreciated. The downtown shopping park is the setting for the Latino Cinco de Mayo celebration, and the German Oktoberfest. Music, arts, crafts, dancing and ethnic foods are there in abundance for the crowds. Italians, Blacks, Basques, Scandinavians, and the many Celtic groups also have organizations and festivals.
