Stories for Harmony Day
|
|
Australia is one of the most successful
multicultural countries and Harmony Week is celebrated in March
each year, reminding us to work to maintain inclusiveness,
respect and belonging for all Australians, regardless of
cultural or linguistic background.
The perfect book for Harmony Week is Let Me Tell You a Story. This
recent addition to the Unley Libraries collection creates a
portrait of what it means to be a refugee in the current day. A
group of award-winning photographers, filmmakers, painters, and
writers have documented the touching and inspiring stories of refugees
coming to the West from the Middle East and Africa.

|
You can also hear local migrants sharing their
experiences of living in our city when you take a moment to
view the videos in our "Harmony Lounge" at Unley
Library next week.

Did you know in 1960 the Adelaide Fringe was
created by a group of artists to create opportunity for local
creative thinkers to exhibit, experiment and perform?
Our current exhibition Things of Nature is part of
this year’s fringe festival and proudly won a Fringe Weekly
Award this year. Come in and see this award winning exhibition
with works by talented South Australian artists Alice Blanch,

Fringe to go, but the exhibition will be up until

Our much loved rocking horse in the Toy Library

with a comfy saddle, new reigns, mane and tail plus a paint job
he is looking very smart and looking forward to giving out free
rides.
