Each year, on the 17th of December, the Australian Intercultural Society organizes a special Sema ceremony offered by the Mevlevi Order of Australia to celebrate Hazreti Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi’s ‘Sheb-i Arus’ or ‘Wedding Night’. It is the traditional night in the modern era when the Mevlevi Order of Sufis, the whirling dervishes, and the many lovers of Mevlana celebrate and remember his union with his Beloved, ‘Wedding with Eternity’. This year, the event will be held at Malvern Town Hall and everyone is invited. The Australian Intercultural Society would like to thank the Mevlevi order of Australia for sharing their special night with the members of the society at large. The Australian Intercultural Society would also like to thank the Australian Sufi Music Group for their performance and the Stonington Council for their support.
