MEET YOU THERE
Down at the local community spaces, arenas, exhibition and conference halls, crowds are gathering. Compelled to see the sights promised, to laugh with neighbours and those who’ve only just arrived, to gaze in awe, learn anew and rekindle the spark that draws us together and makes us proud to be who we are. It is where everyone is welcome. Call them events, experiences, festivals, or fairs, these are celebrations that truly matter. They matter to our communities for their cultural influence and economic impact. They matter to our sense of well-being by feeding our need to congregate. They matter to all those who yearn to be seen and feel a sense of belonging and connection to the people and place they call home. No matter where you come from, or where you’ve been, these are the moments that define and strengthen the bonds we share.
Consider yourself invited. We’ll meet you there.
