PEACE

Respecting, valuing and understanding each other is a good place to start.

Universal Connection has organized the Peace Week launch for the last two years. What an event - what a lot of fantastic talent in our community.

Peace Week is intended to steer people away from gangs and violence in our community. Through out the week organizers will use every method they can to get the message out. This will include everything from school visits to running a radio station. But it’s not just about peace on the streets, it also about peace in the home because that’s where quiet often problems begin. It’s about working together as a family unit and challeging problems that arise. It's not just about guys on the streets or girls out of control. What about our life - do we face up to our problems or kick them under the carpet?

At the previous launches we’ve had singers, rappers, local designers, poets, speakers, and a youth drama group who have contributed to the successes of the launch.

We've had a few hiccups that has been sorted out; the main thing is the everyone feeling happy, appreciated and the audience enjoying the show.

We put on these events to improve the quality of our lives also giving people an opportunity to show what they can do in front of a live audience. It also keeps them busy planning and preparing their piece - that’s positivity.
It's about respect, sharing, team work, self esteem and whether it's your first time or not on stage - you shine!

Being artistic gives you the chance to perform issue base things or about topics that interest you. ITS YOUR VOICE through music and dance.

Are you always singing, dancing rapping, acting, reading poetry or imagining you’re in a boy or girl band? Could you perform in front of a packed audience?
