A THEATRE group has held a festival celebrating cultural diversity.

StoneCrabs Theatre held the event at Woodpecker Community Centre, Woodpecker Road, New Cross, on November 10.

Project managers Julia Evangelista and Tereza Araujo, with Deptford-based visual artist Luciana Duallibe, have been running art and drama workshops since the summer.

The event, attended by around 100 people, featured dancing, live music, face painting, art exhibitions and drama performances.

Ms Evangelista said: "It was all about community building, positive relationships and trying to bring people from different cultures together."
