YAP VISITORS BUREAU and the Yap Chamber of Commerce are inviting everyone to the 6th Homecoming Festival June 17-18, 2016.

This year we are celebrating 50 years of Peace Corps on our Island. We will not only honor the many Peace Corps Volunteers who have come to Yap past and present, but will also celebrate the Island’s unique culture, and highlight the many other cultural communities of Yap as well.

Pre-festival activities include a Night Market with entertainment on Friday evening from 5pm to 11pm June 17 at the Yap Living History Museum grounds. There will be booths with local produce, handicrafts, paintings and more. Food, drinks and pastries will be on sale.

The Festival will culminate on Saturday June 18 with other festival activities including a program highlighting current and former Volunteers, plus performances from various cultural communities.

Please join us as residents and visitors come together at this annual event in a fun social atmosphere.
