Collage Arts Students - Day 11

   Today my group went to Festa Da L'unita, an annual Italian festival that happens right through the summer with a new twist each day. I really enjoyed this festival as they had different cultural stalls spread across the park, from Italian to Latin to Caribbean. They had all kinds of things on sale such as jewellery and clothing at such a low price.

   The event was also free which attracted so many of the locals creating a real sense of community. There was music, dancers and peculiar yet so fascinating art work on display. As the sun set, the bright colourful lights were turned on continuing to keep such a lively atmosphere. We had a few drinks whilst we watched the last of the performers and headed home with some ice cream to end a great night!
