Festivals and community celebrations demonstrate the cultural identity of a community. They strengthen community relations, and make significant contributions to the local economy by positively promoting what a community represents. Every September since 1947 the town of Mitchell, Indiana has its community celebration: The Persimmon Festival. This is a segment from the documentary I did on the festival. It is the pilot to a long term project I've started called: "Our Hoosier Community", a community-based digital media project documenting common pursuits that enrich our Hoosier human culture.
