On 5 August, 11:30am, Norwich Mind will celebrate their Annual Festival of Cultures at their Head Office. This will be a potluck lunch, wherein everyone will bring food from their own particular culture. A lot of people will join us from the Filipino, British, Caribbean, African, Russian, Chinese, Indian, Malaysian, Portuguese, and other communities. This is your chance to learn about other people’s cultures first hand. There will be:
1. A raffle – with fabulous prizes to be won
2. Music and dance from different cultures
3. Face painting
4. Free complementary therapies – Indian head massage, reiki and reflexology
5. Capoeira demonstration
This is also a good opportunity to meet Lord Mayor Felicity Hartley. She will open the event and share with everyone her inspiring story.
And you will also get an opportunity to share your own story! The Voices Project team will be around to talk to anyone who would like to know more about the project - or to record them on the spot if they wish.
There will also be a number of organisations coming over to share with you the services and support available to Black and Minority Ethnic groups in the city and the county. Download a postcard invitation here.
Ring 01603 432 457 for queries - or to simply tell us if you’re attending and what dish you are bringing.
See you there!
