Dear Mr. Sorbello

I am writing in support of the theatrical production ‘ Arrivi … Partenze’

‘ Arrivi … Partenze’ explores the migration experience through multimedia performance. This is a creative and innovative way of bringing the powerful and life-changing dimension of migration to a broad audience.

Australia has become home to 4 million migrants from all over the world. Our country and our state had benefited enormously from the economic, social and cultural contributions of migrants.

‘ Arrivi … Partenze’ will premier in Brisbane during Italian Week 2007 which will be an important celebration of the enrichment of multicultural Australia by Italian migration.

While Australian/Italian in its roots, ‘ Arrivi … Partenze’ tells a universal story and will strongly connect to the broader migration experience and, through that, the building of our state and nation.

Multicultural Affairs Queensland is very pleased to support ‘ Arrivi … Partenze’

Yours Sincerley

Steve Maguire
Executive Director
Multicultural Affairs Queensland.

What a great success we had with our “Internet the Next Generation” fundraising luncheon with guest speaker Dr Vint Cerf, Vice President of Google and co-founder of the Internet, and what a learning experience for all of us! The first time we have ever done a sit down event for more than 350 and the first time we have done electronic marketing.
