The City of Melbourne respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land we govern, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong / Boon Wurrung peoples of the Kulin and pays respect to their Elders past and present. We acknowledge and honour the unbroken spiritual, cultural and political connection they have maintained to this unique place for more than 2000 generations.

We accept the invitation in the Uluru Statement from the Heart and are committed to walking together to build a better future.

Kensington Family Fest

Bring the kids for an afternoon of free play and cultural sharing at Kensington Family Fest.

Run by Kensington Neighbourhood House at the Venny, this event will share African traditions in a relaxed and friendly environment.

Enjoy African drumming, Ethiopian coffee ceremony, Somali snacks and a sausage sizzle. Face painting and henna painting will also be available.

The Venny is a much-loved adventure playground and 'big backyard' for the Kensington community. Lots of indoor and outdoor play options will be on offer.

This event is supported by a Victorian Government multicultural festivals and events grant.
