Mapping Melbourne 2014
Freestyle dance battles, art, music and selfie contests combine in this four-day celebration of our multicultural city.
Overview
Delve into Mongolian hip-hop, witness a high-tech Indonesian shadow play, and snap a photobooth selfie with the glamorous Siem Reap Lady Boys. It's all part of Mapping Melbourne, a four-day celebration of contemporary independent Asian artists working across art, dance, music, film, theatre and spoken word.
With a focus on shifting cultural identity and engagement with the urban space, the multidisciplinary, multicultural festival features more than 40 artists from around Australia and Asia. In addition to the above, standouts on the program include a freestyle dance battle, a bunch of art exhibits and a closing night party that includes music and performance art plus free Japanese dumplings and massages. Seriously. Free massages.
As a matter of fact, almost all of the events at Mapping Melbourne are free. For the full program and venue list visit Multicultural Arts Victoria.
