“The Høstfest-Heritage Foundation represents a connection to the future for Norsk Høstfest and the Scandinavian Heritage Association. For 38 years we have shared the joy of building awareness of our heritage, a beautiful cultural park and a world-class family–friendly Scandinavian festival. The Foundation’s mission, values and vision for the future support all the efforts of past donors and volunteers and present new opportunities for each of us to make a difference in the lives of those who cherish what is and those who will grow from learning more about our wonderful Scandinavian heritage.”
