Purchase your passport and hop aboard the cultural trail!

On Saturday 8 April, the Aberfoyle Community Centre is hosting a great family friendly event where your passport will take you to different parts of the world through food and entertainment.

Try out delectable delicacies from China, India, Thailand and a good old fashioned Aussie BBQ while listening to the sounds of Africa with Bortier Okoe's vibrant drumming.



His talent and high energy will have you moving and swaying in no time at all.

Plus there is a great opportunity to discover your inner drummer with the 'have a go' sessions. All ages can get give it a go - kids will love it.



What better way to learn about and appreciate other cultures through food and music?

Did you know, in China it's customary to let elders start eating first? It's also bad etiquette to stick your chopsticks vertically in your food as it reminds some Chinese people of funerals. A custom in some parts of China is to place joss sticks (sticks of incense) into a pot by the rice next to the ancestor altar.

Dining in India varies across the different regions, but it is common in many areas to not use cutlery. Instead, you make sure you wash your hands and use bread to scoop the food from shared bowls.

In Thailand, you usually use a fork and spoon, and if dining in a restaurant, the person who is perceived to be the richest pays the bill!

Starting at 6.30pm, this is a great opportunity to discover different cultures, have a feed and enjoy entertainment - all for the price of just $5/adult. Children under 12 are free (conditions apply).
