Taste of Lanka
Taste of Lanka is a night of celebrating everything Sri Lankan from its food, craft and performance. Held at Wandering Cooks (corner Cordelia Street and Fish Lane, South Brisbane), Taste of Lanka offers some authentic Sri Lankan organic curries, snacks and preserve while the young Sri Lankans put up a cultural performance for everyone to enjoy. As part of getting to know Sri Lankan culture, there is a film showcase about positive community building stories from Sri Lanka and also some craft and health products on sale that were made in Sri Lanka by the ethical community organisations. A Taste of Lanka is also a fundraising event for the annual Venesa Matram Symposium held in Sri Lanka to support community workers to network, share skills, access training and strengthen their capacity to work with communities around Sri Lanka.
