Embedded within each activity and workshop is the aim of encouraging social
cohesion and integration, increasing individual confidence, and contributing to the wider community ethos in a sustainable supportive cycle.
Teranga Cultural & Diversity Festival Torbay 1, 2 & 3
In Senegal, 'Teranga' is perhaps the most highly regarded value. Roughly translated, it means 'good hospitality.' In practice, Teranga shows how you treat a guest - with open arms and a seat around the bowl of food provided. Imagine has worked with a wide range of organisations including Torbay Council, to organise three Teranga festivals in Torbay which attracted thousands of people from across Devon.
Taste of Africa, Asia and The Caribbean
Building on the success of three annual Teranga Festivals celebrating Torbay's cultural diversity, Imagine hosted its 'Taste of Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean' event at Oldway Mansion in Paignton. Supported by the council, Safer Communities Torbay, and Torbay Care Trust, the event welcomed over 600 attendees.
The day featured a vibrant and heartwarming blend of music and dance, showcasing performances by both professionals and amateurs, children and adults. Visitors enjoyed a mix of scheduled performances, interactive workshops, and an array of fabulous food, creating an unforgettable cultural experience.
Into the Mix Festival
A brand-new diversity festival called Into The Mix is coming to Torbay. Taking place on the exterior lawns of the abbey and in the Spanish Barn, the free event is billed as being an inclusive event aimed at bringing diverse people and communities together to celebrate through music, dance, making, food, spoken word, performance, participation, information, stalls and more. It's all about celebrating Torbay's diversity.
