Community members were invited to join the fun and learn about many service providers that were there on the day.
The markets also serve as an opportunity for people with goods and wares to sell to be able to do so.
There were a number of small stalls selling clothing, hats, jewellery and accessories.
Among the service providers in attendance were Services NSW, Homes Out West and Kurrajong, and the chance to see inside a real NSW Police vehicle was a hit with the youngsters.
Engaging with the many service providers allowed for people in the community to have a more intimate walk through of processes, like applying for housing locally.
A main attraction for the children, as always, was the jumping castle that was set up just outside of the Multi Arts Centre.
As well as entertainment, a barbecue lunch was provided by the Deniliquin Lions Club and the chance to grab some free hot donuts from the Deniliquin Girl Guides also drew a pretty big crowd.
Coordinated by the Deniliquin Local Aboriginal Land Council, the day worked as a fantastic conduit between the indigenous and non-indigenous people of the district.
Through learning, listening and sharing people will continue to better understand one another.
