We’re thrilled to introduce a new project we’re cooking up: Feast of Cultures!
Feast of Cultures brings multicultural community members together to share stories, celebrate culture, and connect over a meal. The project will feature a variety of activities, including cooking classes, community events, gardening, social gatherings, and family-friendly sessions.
We’re also on the lookout for avid home cooks who’d love to share their favourite recipes as part of our Tuesday Community Lunch.
Stay tuned! If you’d like to get involved, get in touch with Monisha at monisha@cch.org.au or on 5472 4842.
Follow us on social media or sign up for our newsletter to keep up to date.
Multicultural community members, along with their families and friends, are warmly invited to join these sessions.
