TORRES STRAIT ISLANDERS IN SYDNEY ECUMENICAL SERVICE

On the 1st of July every year, Torres Strait Islanders acknowledge the 1871 arrival of Christianity on Erub Island in the Torres Strait. In Sydney this year there will be much more than going to church and feasting. Acknowledging that July One or its Creole equivalent, ‘Zulai 1’ is no longer restricted to celebrating Christianity, the Lagaw Kodo Mir Torres Strait Islander Resource and Culture Centre NSW, with the support of the Australia Council for the Arts, have organised a week long exhibition of high profile Islander artists and performances. The week of festivities will culminate with an Ecumenical service and feasting on Sunday 6th July at the Redfern Town Hall. TIME TO BE CONFIRMED
