Thanks to the City of Port Phillip we had an amazing day celebrating Diversity Week with our very first Laneway Market Festival. Luckily the weather was kind to us and our market and activities went ahead smoothly, the local community keeping us busy all day long.
Thanks to funding from the City of Port Phillip, our Get striped festival last Saturday during Multicultural week was great fun, and we loved sharing the day with our partners who helped to make it a great success.
‘Get Striped’ Space2b project marks acceptance and respect through creative arts reminding us that we all deserve to be safe and happy.
The day included a design Market run by Lana from Meet Me at the Market, and the St Kilda farmers market. We also had Basketry and african beading workshops, henna art, cultural dance and face painting. We finished off in the afternoon with an inspirational forum and Q&A with some great speakers, Mariam Issa, Abe Nouk Amini Nyikang and singer song writer Nela Trifkovic.Thanks to photographer Tatiana we have some fantastic photos to share with you and lets face it, pictures say a thousand words.
