Community Diversity Festival
As reported in previous issues, our second annual Community Diversity Festival
will be held on Saturday 27 August this year.
Meg’s Toybox, the Embroiders’ Guild, CANwalk, and the Heart Foundation have
already committed to being involved with information stalls.
There will be performances by the ACT Taoist Tai Chi Society, Folk Dance
Canberra and our own Paul Branson’s band. A few buskers have also been lined
up to entertain visitors outdoors.
There will be displays of artworks by members of the Stepping Stones For Life
Friday Art Group, Robin Bennett (paintings), Alison Allen (painted eggs and
embroidery), Brian Rope (photography) and Brian Stewart (photography), plus a
demonstration of egg painting by Alison and Trevor Allen.
And, of course, there will be food stalls.
Our annual celebration of community diversity will continue on Sunday 28 August
with a worship service focussed primarily on the diversity reflected by our
Stepping Stones For Life Friday Activities and Ross Walker Lodge.
