Immigrant Talent ShowJoin talented immigrants and refugee families at the University of Winnipeg's Bulman Centre (515 Portage Ave) as they share their cultural heritage with their new community. The 2008 Diversity Talent Show is taking place November 22 from 2 - 5 pm.

This free event is looking for entries in the following age categories: immigrant/refugee children (8-12), youth (13-17), and adults (over 18). Compete for prizes.

Presented by the International Centre, the talent show will be attended by local politicians and the media, ensuring the greater public hears these unique stories. If not participating yourself, stop by to take in the multicultural performing groups, folk singers, African drum team, and Aboriginal dance group already on the bill.

Dance, music, demonstrations and cultural displays will abound. Refreshments and snacks will be served. Prizes will be raffled off with ticket proceeds going towards the purchase of a van for the International Centre.

For more information call Si-il Park at 943-9158 ext. 300.
