"I guess it’s about being more open to dialogue with each other, understanding each other, and not judging who we are or what we are, but actually embracing the differences that are in our community and then celebrating it, and we have a unique country."

Engaging with people who might be considered different to us helps to see different ideas and perspective's and grows curiosity and empathy.

Celebrating diversity encourages acceptance of differences, and help to reduce misinformation and opinions that fuel discrimination.

Share with us how you show empathy for others!

This year the focus is more on young children and families

What is Myers Park Medley?
It is a fun day out for residents of the City Centre. Due to the change in focus, entertainment offerings will be a little different this year too.  There will be a stage with non-stop entertainment, including games and music.  And children will be invited to join fun activities throughout the park, such as outdoor gym classes and water fights. A variety of healthy lunch options will be on offer and the park will be buzzing with roaming entertainers.
