About C.H.A.R.M Vic

Our ultimate goal is to stage an exhibition at the Melbourne Immigration Museum - Melbourne, to showcase the patterns of migration and settlement by these two groups to Australia since the 1880's. We also aim to highlight our profile as active members of the Australian culture and society today.

We want to strengthen the ties within the community and build strong relationships with other community groups. La Faya Festival is part of Phase Two of this community building initiative.
