Mosaic Festival 2015

Overview

Now in its third year running, Mosaic Festival celebrates Victorian women and the cornucopia of cultures they represent; an initiative of the Victorian Immigrant and Refugee Women's Coalition (VIRWC). City Square will be transformed into a multicultural marketplace dishing up international cuisine and selling beautiful handicrafts. From Turkish jewellery and crafts to Malay and Indonesian fare, you’re bound to walk away with more culturally rich mind and belly at this free festival.

Entertainment-wise, there's plenty of song and dance on the bill — Diana Nguyen, Culture Queenz, Jhoom Bollywood and Ecuadorian Dance. There'll also be a fashion show where you're encouraged to come dressed in your national costume and strut your stuff. If you're not all threaded up in national dress don’t sweat it, there'll be opportunities to try on authentic Chinese and Korean costumes, and there'll be henna stores for those who want to try something a little different.
