Celebrating Helvetia!

Through our past Culture Fests, we have thoroughly enjoyed sharing our unique culture, heritage and history with friends and neighbors in Helvetia as well as visitors from all over the world.  And who knows?  We may continue this fun tradition in the future!

We are grateful to all of our wonderful volunteers and vendors who have worked with us over the past years to make each Helvetia Culture Fest a success.

However, Helvetia Community Association's work continues.  Here's a page describing our current activities.
