HUNGARIAN ETHNIC GROUP OF WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA The Hungarian Ethnic Group of Western Pennsylvania is proud to announce its participation again in the Pittsburgh Folk Festival from May 23-25,1980. We will have a new dance and music presentation with all the other nationalities, a total of three days of fantastic cooking, singing, dancing in front of the food and display booths, childrens’ performances and stage performances. Each ethnic group has tickets for sale so we urge you to buy from us in advance to avoid the lines and to get us the small sales percentage which will help us tremendously in our preparation. Every year, each group has something unusual to present in the food and display booths. Do not miss the biggest folk festival in the East Coast because we will be working very hard to present something new, educational and entertaining, a tribute to our ancestral heritage.
