T-shirts by Kurdish artist available for sale

Farhad Bandesh is a Kurdish artist - a refugee imprisoned on Manus Island by the Australian Government for nearly six years.
This is an opportunity to buy an awesome t-shirt, support art and an artist directly, and raise awareness about this important issue.
Farhad’s artistic talents include being a guitar maker, singer, musician, painter and poet.
100% of money raised goes directly to this artist to continue practicing art.

It is inspiring to see how he continues to produce art whilst imprisoned in such harsh conditions on Manus Island where sourcing materials to practice art is really difficult.
The t-shirts have just been printed and are available now!

Tamil Feast

Port Macquarie has become the new home for 7 Tamil Refugees. They have moved to the area to be self-supporting and have brought with them fantastic cultural diversity. To celebrate this the Mid North Coast Refugee Support Group is organizing a Tamil Feast and Dance Event at the Port Macquarie Baptist Church on Saturday 23rd February at 1pm.
The Baptist Church has kindly offered the use of their fantastic facility for free and this is a great community service. The Tamil food will be supplied by a couple who are setting up their own catering and gardening/cleaning business.
Before the meal a classically trained dancer will be dazzling us with his Tamil dances.
Please join us for this Tamil experience. Tickets cost $25.
For catering purposes tickets will be sold in advance - you can email mncrsg@gmail.com or call Janette Jones 65858206 or 0400022874 before the 20th February.
