Courses, games, art, sports, walks and relaxation - IMy Place is for everyone!

We made time for everything and for all!

The Summer Garden was the ideal choice for Multifunctional Cultural Center My Place to

host the "Summer Beauty 2014‟‟ Miss Contest for the Filipino community in Romania.

Over 115 enthusiastic and good humoured persons enjoyed together this event. The eight

competitors were rewarded by My Place Center with a free makeup course and

promotional materials. Congratulations to all for the special organization and many thanks

to the Filipino community for this successful event, full of grace and femininity!

Filipino Sports Fest was a great opportunity to relax, socialize and compete in sports. The

Filipino Community‟s members in Romania had fun at the Multifunctional Cultural

Center My Place. The 4 teams: white, green, blue and red competed in an open and

optimistic atmosphere to win games such as touch ball, bunong braso (arm wrestling),

luksong lubid (jumping rope) and sipang bilangan.

They had the opportunity to participate in sports, dynamic relaxation activities and

activities for leading a healthy lifestyle that are meant to decrease stress and improve

physical status.

The launching and promoting Event of the project‟s Stage II which took place on 18th

better and about the lessons we have learned.

"Grab your broomstick and let's party!" was the launching invitation to an incendiary

Halloween party organized by My Place Center!

At the fashion design workshop at My Place, students were able to create their own

Halloween party costume and the most original costume was awarded!!! Those interested

were directed by a fashion designer armed with all the necessary things and clever ideas!

Don‟t be scared! Only friendly ghosts, nice witches and fierce costumes were present at My

Place Halloween Party 2014. The guests spent a wonderful evening with many surprises: a

haunted party and highly enjoyable sinister fun, music for all ages, buffet with various

dishes, costume contest with prizes and special decorations. Happy Halloween party!

At the International Folklore Festival "Garofița Pietrei Craiului" 2014, My Place Center

enjoyed a beautiful collaboration with CIS Braşov, Braşov County Council, the Romanian-

Arab Cultural and Press Club, The Filipino Community in Romania. My Place supported

the participation of dancers from the Filipino and the Palestinian communities in the

International Folklore Festival "Garofiţa Pietrei Craiului", the eighth edition, which took

place in Brasov. This festival promoted the traditional culture of the participating

countries in order to create a bridge and a cultural exchange between the invited

ensembles, as well as to present to the guests the history, culture and natural beauty of

Brasov, thus contributing to the cultural enrichment and a better understanding and

cooperation among different cultures with different customs and traditions.

The group of 5 Palestinian dancers, who study in Romania, shared their culture and

traditions to a large audience within an exciting and enthusiastic show, and the group of 33

Philippine dancers delighted the audience with their performance, colourful costumes and

good humour.

„Whether they share ideas, whether they spend time together,

whether they participate in various activities organized by the

Center My Place, I believe that here foreigners find support

and a place where everyone gives and receives. My Place is

indeed a bridge to the integration of third-country nationals in

Romania.”

Iris Alexe- Partner Project Responsible, Novapolis

Association- Center of Analysis and Initiatives for

Development

"My Place is where integration starts in dancing steps, where

multiculturalism meets and interacts. From multiculturalism

we know and learn something new almost every day. "

Mihai Paun – Responsible socio-educational activities, JRS

România

“An example of good practice and institutional

cooperation is that between the Multifunctional Cultural

Center My Place and the Migrant Integration Center

Brașov. The two centers created an authentic

multicultural moment in August 2014 when a Filipino

and a Palestinian ensemble coming from Bucharest

participated in the International Folklore Festival

„Garofița Piatra Craiului‟ in Brașov.”

Astrid Hamberger - Representative of The Migrant

Integration Center Brasov
