| Dundas Community Festival
The sixth annual Dundas Community Festival was held Saturday, September
17th 2005 between 12:00pm and 5:00pm. The Festival is conducted
through a partnership between the Fort York Food Bank (FYFB), Scadding
Court Community Centre, local businesses and residents. The purpose
of the Festival is to build community capacity and recognize community
service within the Dundas West/Bathurst neighbourhood. The theme
for this year was ‘Harvest Time – Bringing a Community
Together’. Festival activities included a series of venues
within Alexandra Park described as follows:
· A ‘Children’s Zone’ including face painting,
games, arts & crafts and other entertainment.
· A ‘Stage’ with DJ's and performers throughout
the day.
· A ‘MarketPlace’ for the community to sell/share
products as well as for community agencies to set up information
booths.
· A ‘ Food Drive ’ organized by the FYFB for
the community to make contributions to relieve poverty.
· A ‘Mural Painting’ to capture the community’s
ideas artistically.
