This past week we provided yet another free training workshop for asylum seekers around food and hospitality skills, each year we providing through our employment networks tens of thousands of dollars of free training courses building the capacity of asylum seekers.

On Sunday the ASRC took 20 asylum seekers to Warnambool for the day where they had a wondeful time watching whales and having a picnic.

The ASRC in collaboration with a number of artists will be presenting Material Word an exhibition for 2 weeks in Federation Square (its free), sharing the stories of asylum seekers through art. To find out more go to the home page of our website: www.asrc.org.au and click onto link under EDUCATE section of our website. The official launch is next Thursday at 11am in Federation Square if any of you for some strange reason want to hear me speak!
