Friends of Dundas Roncesvalles Peace Garden hasn't added a story.
WHY ARE WE FUNDRAISING?
Friends of the Dundas Roncesvalles Peace Garden, a volunteer
community group, are fundraising, with a goal of $9,800, to help pay
for the Garden's Grand Opening: Saturday June 11th, 2016. The Opening
Ceremony starts at 11 a.m. at the Peace Garden, followed by a short
walk down Roncesvalles Avenue to Ritchie Street for an outdoor stage,
in cooperation with Roncy Rocks.
We aim to bring the leaders of Toronto and the Mississaugas of
the New Credit First Nation together to cut the ceremonial ribbon and
lead off the day's festivities, which will include music, dance, and
art from both communities. This collaboration will produce the
first performances of indigenous music played on the streets of our
neighbourhood in more than 200 years!
A stage, street closures, and permits will be
required to make this all possible, and, especially to compensate the
performing artists.
The day's events will be free and open to the public! Mark your calendar.
EVERYONE WHO DONATES WILL BE THANKED ON THE THANK YOU PAGE OF DRPG.CA , PERMANENTLY, unless you ask for anonymity.
