The first and largest event will be our wonderful Abbeyfield Multicultural Festival on Sunday, 11th July 1–8pm. Now in its sixth year, the festival promises to be just as good as previous years with some new and innovative performances. Local people will have an opportunity to showcase their talents and to really enjoy the rich diversity of beautiful Burngreave.
The next planned event is on the Wensley Estate on 8th September on the green across from Owler Brook School, and meetings with local people are already underway. The winter event planned for early December is the ‘Burngreave Festival of Lights!’ which will brighten up our dark winter months. Next year we hope to hold a theatre performance on another green space in our area.
If you want to put your creative talents into action please get in touch as we will need people to get involved in making costumes, lanterns and performing, as well as help with First Aid, fundraising and general volunteering.
The project has three years funding from New Deal and two years funding from the Area Panel. For more information contact Panni Poh Yoke Loh, Events Coordinator, Green City Action on 244 0353.
