About
The two-day event explores community storytelling through art forms. Six communities- Turkish, Ethiopian, Eritrean, Nepalese, Azerbaijan, Sierra Leone will come together to share food, costumes, culture, tradition and stories to weave a narrative of multiculturalism in Alberta. We aim to uphold and preserve the cultures of different communities while presenting them to the public and to allow all participants to learn from one another and understand the cultural differences and similarities.

Aimed at developing civic space and engagement for ethno-cultural communities in the City of Edmonton. Initially funded by Health Canada through the Voluntary Sector Initiative (VSI), more than 120 community members participated in 36 policy education workshops in which four issues were identified as major determinants of holistic ethno-cultural communities’ health.
