FREE school holiday fun can be found at the second annual Celebrate Doveton event on 23 September.
The event staged by Doveton Neighbourhood Learning Centre includes henna and face painting, craft corner, gardening activities, historical photos, a Myuna Farm animal nursery, a Doveton Library event and a sausage sizzle.
The winners of the Celebrate Doveton awards for photography, and under-14s visual arts and story-telling, as well as Doveton’s Living Treasure will be announced.
The event reflects the suburb’s diversity and inclusiveness, says organiser Christine Anderson.
“Doveton’s positive qualities are often overlooked, and it only makes the news when negative things happen.
“We saw the rich spirit of the people and wanted to celebrate it with everyone.”
Celebrate Doveton is at Doveton Neighbourhood Learning Centre, 34 Oak Avenue, Doveton, on 23 September, 11am-2pm.
Details: 9791 1449.
