Slight thread drift alert

Received an email from colleague (cultural festival manager) today re needing ideas to promote the One World One Essex initiative. And I mentioned the threads like this and others and said that I would like to see monthly multicoultural folk sessions in pubs, schools or village halls and big festival in large venue yearly.

The Arts development people and the aforementioned (cultural festival manager) started getting all excited and said I should apply for a small arts grant (£2500) to kick it off the ground. Now they want me to talk to the Diversity manager for advice.

Thoughts?
