Come on down to the Abbyfield Park Multicultural Festival, which kicked off today at 1pm and runs through until 8pm. If you can't make it log on to  http://icecast.commedia.org.uk:8000/aph where you can hear a live broadcast from the main stage courtesy of the technical savvy Community Media Assocation and the Burngreave Messenger.

For those of you thinking of coming down, there's music from the main stage and sound systems, dance, sports, arts, workshops, food and a wide variety of stalls. Already I have spotted Burngreave Community Action Trust, Sure Start, Green City Action, Sheffield Indymedia, Palestinian Solidarity Campaign, Chilean Solidarity Campaign,and even Green Top Circus! There are also numerous local traders and I've already sampled loads of scrummy food and drank loads of coffee! You can also learn about recycling, composting and wind and solar power... and it looks like the weather may just be kind to us!

This was indeed, a truly multi-cultural occasion ! The whole world in miniature at "Abbeyfield Park" proving that our city of Sheffield is indeed a large melting pot rich in these diverse cultures represented at that yearly event.
What a wealth of talent,skills ALL combined to make that day memorable for all who took the trouble to join in.
Cordial congratulations to the organisers who have succeeded in their mission to bring us all together as a "family" united as good citizens under one banner to celebrate our common heritage.

I am proud to be a Sheffielder ! are you?
