What is MOSAIC?

MOSAIC stands for Multicultural One-Stop Assistance Information Centre. The MOSAIC Multicultural Centre is open five days a week and runs a wide range of activities. You can look at the current programme online, or check for special events.

The team of trained volunteers speak a number of languages to assist staff in helping the community. They can provide information on services and activities to people in their home language.

Activities are both educational and fun. MOSAIC staff and volunteers organise English classes for those who speak a different language at home. Community groups who bring together people from the same background gather at MOSAIC to meet, talk, eat and enjoy cultural activities. Cultural workshops are for all residents; you can learn another language too!

MOSAIC provides information on helpful services and will assist with referrals if required.

Our mission statement:

MOSAIC is a multicultural service that seeks to celebrate the city's diversity and is dedicated to empowering and meeting the needs of its ethnic communities, and facilitating their participation in decision-making.

The MOSAIC brochures are available in several languages.
