have announced the new dates for this year's Culture Fest.

Saturday October 14 and Sunday October 15 has been set aside for the event, which will feature an array of ethnic food, local arts and crafts, bands and performers.

The event will have the same theme as last year --"Unity in the Community''.

Meantime, organisers say there has been enough interest to have 20 food stalls, 50 exhibits of arts and crafts and 40 bands.

The event will take place on the lawns surrounding the Clocktower Centre, leaving the remainder of the Dockyard complex free for other attractions, parking and transportation.

Anyone interested in taking part in this year's festival should contact 293-1072 (entertainment), 292-1681, 232-0583 (food stalls), 234-2809 or 234-1709 (arts and crafts).
