Gallery - Mornington Peninsula Interfaith Festival 2012
On June 3rd 2012, faith traditions came together in the spirit of peace to celebrate at the Mornington Peninsula Interfaith Festival. This year's theme was 'The Wisdom of Indigenous Faiths' and focused on how indigenous cultures have a lot to teach us about sharing, sustainability, and our spiritual relationship to Mother Earth. Activities included a number of Indigenous Art & Film Exhibitions, and workshops such as 'Whale Dreaming Story Telling', 'Conversation on Dreaming', 'Boomerang Painting', 'Semah Spiritual Dancing', 'African Drumming and Dancing' and 'Laughter Yoga'. Festival concluded with an 'Multifaith Concert' with performances from Aboriginal, Maroi, Tongan, West Papuan, Apache, Anatolian and Nagaland indigenous traditions.
