We invite you to contribute to the Book of Belonging. This project began in 2017 with Edmund Rice Centre WA, since then we have been collecting and sharing, sotries and artworks from people of all ages and backgrounds from Perth's multicultural communities. We invite YOU to add your very own page to the book through drawing, watercolour painting, writing and collage! We warmly welcome stories and creative expressions of your history, identities, and culture.

At this workshop participants will also be invited to share in communal conversations and enjoy Community Arts Network's Lotterwest Story Street travelling community library featuring stories, videos, and artworks from many different local multicultural communities.

Produced by Belonging as part of CAN's Lotterywesr Story Street in partnership with the City of Canning.
