After the first successful and tasty event in December, traditional African Vegan Food will again be provided by the Women's Group of the Nottingham & Notts Refugee Forum, on Friday 11th January, starting around 7.30pm at the Sumac Centre, Forest Fields. Come and try it!

Small World Kitchen is now to be a regular event, and will also take place on Friday 25th January at the Sumac Centre.

Location details for Sumac Centre can be found on the Sumac/Veggies website (see events diary). Cost will be a recommended donation of £3.

Also at the Sumac Centre, starting this week, you can experience a repeat exhibition of artwork created by Nottingham's refugees and asylum seekers. The original exhibition was part of an arts project Putting Down Roots, exploring refugees' and asylum seekers' relationship to the land and agriculture. Other Putting Down Roots events included a picnic and art workshops comprising visual art, sculpture and drumming at St Ann’s allotment in Nottingham, in partnership with Ecoworks.
