Join the party to celebrate our ‘In Translation’ Project.

You are invited to join us at the party to celebrate the project and In Translation exhibition at Manchester Art Gallery on 1st November.

The celebration will take place in the atrium area of Manchester Art Gallery from 6pm to 9pm.

The event will include a tea party when members of the three participating cultural groups will share tea making ceremonies and examples of cake making from Chinese and British heritage. The Europia group will entertain with a traditional Polish performance in medieval costume.

Members of Musicians without Borders’  whose logo is ‘War divides; Music Connects’ will take part in the celebrations.  There will be live music and ambient background tapes to include the music of all the cultures taking part in the project.

Request for recipes: If you have a favourite recipe for cakes, please send it in to us so that we can print off a recipe leaflet for people to take home and explore.  You can add your recipe to the comments section of this blog, or to Comments at the bottom of  our dedicated blog, ‘Favourite Cakes around the World- start Here’,
