Description

The Cultural Festival at Kaley Square Park in the Parramore neighborhood of Downtown Orlando, Florida, in 1998. The festival featured a "dunk the pastors" booth and was created to represent local cultures. The first photograph shows a group of children at the festival and the second photograph shows the festival entrance. The third photograph shows, Vanessa Rivera, three of the sons of contributor of these photographs, Dedra Jenkins—Gaius Jenkins, Nathaniel Jenkins, and Benjamin Daniel Jenkins—and an unidentified child. The fourth photograph shows Jackie Rivera.

This photograph was originally discarded, along with other similar photographs, and then found by a local resident near the Emmanuel Fellowship and Worship Center, which is located at the former site of Restore Orlando. The collection was given to the contributor, Dedra Jenkins.
