m “It, m ‘What the world needs now is craft, sweet, craft.’ Or something like that. At the World Sufi Festival
you can find out more about traditional skills and spread a little love at
the same time. The celebration is dedicated to the mystical practice of
Sufism, which promotes peace and understanding between religions, but they’ll also be a bazaar for shopping, poetry reading and music from
Bangladeshi folk troupe, Joler Gaan.
