Night Mode: Abundance Edition
Settle in for an abundant evening with workshops, drag performances, talks and art at the next instalment of Bunjil Place's after-hours series.
Overview
This week, Narre Warren arts precinct Bunjil Place is showing off its night owl side, with the next instalment of its Night Mode series. Kicking off from 6pm on Thursday, July 14, Night Mode: Abundance Edition is set to deliver a tasty after-hours program of food, drinks, music, art and talks.
You'll enjoy late-night access to the current exhibition All the Things I Should Have Said That I Never Said by artist and curator David Sequeira. It's a multi-faceted exploration of authorship, history and time, delivered via a compelling showcase of painting, performance, sculpture, installation and fashion.
From 6pm, catch a drop-in workshop led by artist and crafting queen Sai-Wai Foo, and learn how to transform paper into stunning headpieces and corsages. The hands-on classes have a veggie theme, in a nod to Bunjil Place's Casey Cornucopia Garden pop-up — an immersive celebration of local produce complete with giant vegetable sculptures and edible fog. You'll want to explore that while you're here, too.
Across three performances (6.30pm, 7.30pm. 8.30pm), legendary local drag star Brenda Bressed will ignite the Bunjil Place foyer, dishing up belters from the back-catalogues of Cher, Aretha Franklin, Liza Minelli and more. Meanwhile, you can catch a workshop on crafting edible clay pendants, and chat to local producers while sampling their wares at the Casey Cornucopia Food Hub market stall.
Plus, Bunjil Place's cafe and bar will be open until 9pm, serving a lineup of light bites and libations to enjoy while you wander.
Entry to Night Mode: Abundance Edition is free, though you'll need to register online for a spot.
