We
are
pleased to
announce our third
Spring Fayre for 2007, funded by the Community Development
Foundation(CDF). The CDF is supported by the Department of
Communities and Local Government and the Home Office.
The
Fayre will be held on
Saturday
March 17th 2007,
from 11am to 6pm, at Moat Community
College, Maidstone Rd, Leicester, near the city centre. It will be a
free multicultural and multifaith event hosted by the Beltane Spring
Fayre Group.
A
showcase for local
talent in music,
singing, dancing, and poetry, the festival will also offer children's
entertainment and activities such as a bouncy castle, ball pond, and
climbing wall. Face painters and henna painters will be there. A
creche is available for short sessions for younger children.
Workshops
and talks on
various
spiritualities will offer a chance to understand our neighbours'
beliefs. Druidry, Wicca, Celtic and Native American Indian lore will
be amongst those illustrated. Interfaith and other faith groups have
been invited to take part.
There
will be
demonstrations of
complementary healing arts, a new age market, many local voluntary
group stalls, with Neighbourhood Housing and the emergency services
bringing displays and advice concerning safety and security for all.
Vegetarian
refreshments
