There was an excellent turnout out of numbers for last Friday night's performance by Hamoris Lian Timor as part of the group's current tour which is bringing the culture of Timor-Leste to audiences young and old.

Mansfield's Friends of Venilale (FoV) president, Julie Aldous was thrilled with the success of the evening and the wonderful response from those who supported the evening.

"Proceeds of the night have gone towards the musicians and FoV projects in Timor-Leste," said Ms Aldous.

"The two school concerts were well received and educative for students from Mansfield Secondary College, Mansfield Primary School, Steiner School and Timbertop," she said.

Ms Aldous wanted to thank everyone involved who contributed in many different ways to ensure a successful event.
