On Thursday, Oct. 3, the Annual Multicultural Awards Banquet will honor a new group of award winners that represent people of different ethnic backgrounds from Boulder County that have made significant contributions in the areas of Arts, Business, Community Service, Education, Government, Health, Partners, Science, and Youth. This event is hosted by Boulder County’s Community Action Programs (CAP) and Community Action Development Corporation (CADC).

The idea for the banquet arose due to the lack of public recognition for people from diverse ethnic backgrounds in Boulder County. The first Annual Multicultural Awards Banquet was held in October 1989 . This is our 31st year where we come together to celebrate the accomplishments of people who give so much to our community.
