Culture Quest: Heart of Asia
“Culture Quest: Heart of Asia” is a student-led initiative, allowing participants to travel through four regions of Asia — each with its own stories, languages, and creative traditions. Participants will join hands‑on activities, cultural surprises, and moments of reflection that connect them to values shared across communities.

🐎 Mongolia: build your own mini ger (yurt)
🌳 China: craft a beaded bonsai for the “Garden of Harmony”
🌺 Pakistan: try traditional henna art on paper, or even on your own hands!
🕌 Turkey: design an Iznik tile for our collective Mosaic Wall
Get your hands a little messy and meet people who are just as curious as you are.
