During Folklorama’s second week (August 12-18), we will have a display table at the Africa Pavilion located at the Holy Cross Gym, 290 Dubuc Street.
Although Grands ‘n’ More Winnipeg is part of a campaign focused on grandmothers and their orphaned grandchildren in sub-Saharan Africa, we have been open to anyone. We are delighted to have attracted, not only grandmothers in our city, but also men and women who are not grandparents and who share our concern.
