Taste of Diversity 2024 celebrates Buffalo’s cultural heritage

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — It wasn’t the day organizers dreamed of, but the rain provided a beautiful backdrop for those who came out for the 2024 Taste of Diversity.

“It’s just about being together, no matter how big or small, coming together for a common goal and just enjoying the moment and living it,” said Syidah Sabir, a dancer with Mahatammoho Collective.

The celebration brings together the flavors, traditions and talents of our diverse community.

Vendors sold all kinds of foods, art, jewelry, and spices.

The rain forced them to move back a bit, but people still came out to enjoy it.

“We definitely support the West Side, the heart of Buffalo. We’re strong in Buffalo, so no matter the weather, the date, the conditions, we’ll be there to support each other,” Natasha said. Perkins, festival co-chair.
