ORISCON and Dubbo Connecting Community Services join forces to celebrate cultural diversity

ORISCON is thrilled to announce its continued partnership with Dubbo Connecting Community Services, a collaboration that has been pivotal in supporting the migrant community and enriching the cultural fabric of our region.

This partnership, which has grown through various cultural and social initiatives, now takes a new stride as Dubbo Connecting Community Services contributes $5000 towards the upcoming “Cross-Cultural Carnivale”.

CEO of Connecting Community Services, Michelle Redden, described partnerships as “the corner stone of building a resilient and vibrant community”.

“Learning and gaining experiences and knowledge from others especially other cultures bridges gaps and fosters social connection,” she said.

This generous support from Connecting Community Services will allow ORISCON to offer a range of free activities for children and families, ensuring that everyone can participate in this vibrant celebration.

The event will feature an interactive activity tent hosted by local favourites Jack Randell and Pooka the Clown, promising engaging experiences for the young and young-at-heart.

The Cross-Cultural Carnivale will be a lively, nine-hour celebration of our community’s rich cultural diversity, bringing together a wide array of food stalls that showcase global cuisines.

Visitors can savour a delicious variety of dishes, from traditional flavours to modern twists, reflecting the many cultures that call Dubbo home.

In addition to the diverse food offerings, the event will feature a full day of free entertainment, including live music, dance performances and cultural showcases. With acts highlighting the incredible talent within our community, the event promises to be a feast for the senses.

Set to take place on Saturday, October 19, from 12pm to 9 pm at the heart of Dubbo, Victoria Park, this free event will unite our communities, celebrate our cultural heritage, and provide a platform for creativity and talent.

The partnership between ORISCON and Dubbo Connecting Community Services is a shining example of how we can work together to create inclusive, celebratory spaces that reflect the diverse spirit of our region.
