Regional Centre for Culture
A cultural event for every day.
Overview
This is not a single event, but rather a collection. The Regional Centre for Culture is an initiative from Creative Victoria aiming to celebrate the land and culture of which the Dja Dja Wurrung and Taungurung peoples are traditional custodians. Across an entire year, it's highlighting local events and experiences throughout the region so you can fill almost every day with a cultural adventure.
Among the plethora of offerings are special events, such as a day dedicated to sustainable housing; exhibitions, including the Paul Guest Prize for contemporary drawing at Bendigo Art Gallery; and the magnificent BendArts Festival, a week-long affair of shows, workshops and performances. There's also Demolish, a theatrical performance exploring the intangible connection between landscape, life and the future. The show will take place at Bendigo Showgrounds from December 11–15.
Rosalind Park is the hub for many of Bendigo's program highlights including Yapenya, a free ceremonial song and dance event on Saturday, November 17; and Poppet, an interactive performance on Rosalind Park's poppet head, using light projection, shadow puppetry and aerial dancing on Saturday, October 20.
But these are very much the tip of the iceberg. The Regional Centre of Culture invites you to meander through its many, many happenings. You can plan ahead using one of the pre-designed itineraries.
