One Evening, One World

Bangor University will hold its annual One World Gala celebration of cultural diversity on Thursday 16th March. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The concert will see students from all over the world, as well as members of local community, showcase their cultures by performing dance and music acts. Expect performances from India, China, Africa, Japan, and of course the UK and Wales! ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The One World Gala, organised by the University’s International Student Support Office, has been running for over ten years and in this time has become an important date in the Bangor University calendar. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The event is free to attend and the doors will open at 7pm with performances starting at 7:30pm. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The University will be raising money for Wamumbi Orphan Care Foundation, a small charity supporting orphaned children in Kenya, which was set up by one of the lecturers at School of Environment, Natural Resources and Geography; any donations would be gratefully received. You can learn about the foundation at http://wamumbiorphancare.org.uk/. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Handmade jewellery and cakes will be available with 100% of the proceeds going towards the charity. There will be a raffle and a bar serving drinks. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

This will be a fun family friendly evening! ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
