Hillsboro to host first Ethiopian Cultural FestivalThe event will highlight the diversity of Africa's second-most populous country and its growing diaspora. An Ethiopian coffee ceremony, along with Ethiopian food, music, language and dance, will be on display at the first Ethiopian Cultural Festival in Hillsboro, from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Sunday, June 5. Alemu said the Ethiopian population in Washington County is growing. Even still, it's hard to find an Ethiopian restaurant in the suburbs — a problem she hopes to fix one day. The Ethiopian Cultural Festival will be held at the Glenn & Viola Walters Cultural Arts Center, 527 E. Main St. in Hillsboro.
