If you’re considering homeschooling, new to homeschooling or you’re an experienced homeschooler–this is the event for you! Cola City is committed to creating an environment that celebrates the unique perspectives, backgrounds, and identities of all people, embracing diversity as a cornerstone of our success.

Through intentional efforts, this Expo strives to cultivate an atmosphere of belonging, where everyone has equitable opportunities to thrive, contribute, and reach their full potential. By championing inclusivity and affirming the dignity of every person, we aim to inspire positive change and build a brighter, more harmonious future for all.

In order to reach this goal, we need vendors and exhibitors who represent a variety of educational resources, materials, and services that cater to diverse learning styles, cultural backgrounds, and abilities.

This year's theme is: Mirrors and Windows. Educational resources to provide our children with both reflections of their own lives (mirrors) and a peek into different perspectives of others (windows).
