Renfrew Ravine

Moon Festival

Mission Statement

Linking the Asian Mid Autumn celebration with western harvest traditions
Raising awareness of the environment and caring for the earth that sustains us,
and Renfrew Ravine as our local piece of environment to care for.
Celebrating creativity in the community and providing opportunities for people to participate in creative activities.

To create something beautiful with and for our neighbours
To see families outside together, at night in the dark, speaking many languages and enjoying each others company
To celebrate the full moon
To go for a twilight walk with lanterns along the ravine - a place we might otherwise avoid after dark
To listen to great music
To see beautiful lanterns and their reflections in the stream
To contemplate
To marvel at our incredibly talented kids when they perform for us
To drink tea, eat moon cakes and chat with neighbours
To enjoy the sensation of a community coming together to celebrate
