Well Hello Spring and to all of you.


This year’s Phee Broadway program has been fantastic and September’s offerings will not disappoint. Multi-instrumentalist Adam Page is playing tomorrow night. It’s a night not be missed.
As Tim Minchin said “It is a rare treat to see a musician with such a masterful grasp of his craft performing with such effortless charisma, humour and inventiveness. I was blown away.”
Also grand final public holiday has a Super Amazing Giant Girl visiting to entertain your little ones with her hilarious antics. Links for tickets to both are below or at the door on the day.

The Regional Centre for Culture grant announcements are set for November’s end. This is not your only opportunity to get involved and you can register your interest here to be kept up to date on all things RCC.

ARTLANDS is part of the RCC program and the dates have been set for 10 – 14 October.  Promising to be regional Australia’s biggest arts event, it will be centred on Bendigo and Castlemaine as well as presenting experiences all across the state. Find out more at the Regional Arts Victoria website.
