An afternoon of unity and support. Let’s come together to express solidarity for Palestinians. We will not be silent in the face of injustice.

For this event we will be joining the community art project “Birds of Gaza” and inviting you all to join us in making origami birds to remember the children killed in Israel’s ongoing genocidal campaign in Gaza. Through the power of collective art we will be highlighting the atrocities that have led to over 34,000 Palestinians being mercilessly killed,  over 14,000 of them are children.

Many Palestinian’s have been forced to flee and seek refuge in various parts of the world, including small numbers to Southeast Asia. A multitude of them endure financial hardships, lack identification documents and are denied basic human rights. For this event, we'll be raising awareness and collecting gifts for Palestinian refugees and students in Indonesia.

This is a family friendly event and a collective effort. We will first begin the event with some short informal talks and then follow with making origami birds and writing words of solidarity on our birds together. We will be providing materials for this arts and craft activity - though we welcome you to bring your own paper and colouring supplies to share with the community if you wish. Afterwards, we will collect the birds so that they can be exhibited to raise awareness of what is happening in Gaza.

No art expertise or experience is necessary, and this event is open to all age groups.

It would be helpful to get an idea of numbers to know how many materials we need to supply, so please let us know if you intend to come along by signing up in the form below.

一個團結和支持的下午。讓我們齊聚一堂，表達對巴勒斯坦人的團結。在不公正面前，我們不會保持沉默。

在這個活動中，我們將加入社群藝術項目“加薩之鳥”，並邀請大家一起製作摺紙鳥，以紀念在以色列持續的種族滅絕活動中被殺害的孩子們。通過集體藝術的力量，我們將強調導致超過34,000名巴勒斯坦人被無情殺害的暴行。

許多巴勒斯坦人被迫逃離並在世界各地尋求庇護，包括少量人口到東南亞。其中許多人忍受著財務困難，缺乏身份文件並被剝奪基本人權。在這個活動中，我們將提高對巴勒斯坦難民和印尼學生的意識，並為他們募集禮物。

這是一個適合家庭參與的活動，也是一個集體活動。我們將首先舉行一些簡短的非正式會談，然後進行摺紙鳥的製作，並在鳥上寫上聲援的話語。我們將為這個藝術和手工藝活動提供材料 - 雖然如果您願意，我們歡迎您自己攜帶紙張和著色用品與社群分享。之後，我們將收集這些鳥類，以提高人們對加薩正在發生的事情的認識。

無需藝術專業知識或經驗，此活動對所有年齡層開放。

為了知道我們需要提供多少材料，我們需要了解參與人數，請在此處的表格中報名，讓我們知道您是否打算參加
