Saltwater Freshwater Festival 2012

Date:

Thursday, 26/01/2012 - 11:00am - 05:00pm

Description:

The Saltwater Freshwater Festival is the largest regional Aboriginal Cultural event on the Mid North Coast of NSW, Australia. It is a nomadic event that moves to a different location in the region each Australia Day (26 January).

The Festival is run by the Saltwater Freshwater Arts Alliance Aboriginal Corporation, a regional body for Aboriginal arts and culture on the Mid North Coast, that aims to position Aboriginal art and culture as the foundation for the long-term social, economic and cultural development of the region’s Aboriginal communities.

The Saltwater Freshwater Festival is a showcase of the best Aboriginal talent in the country and most importantly, in the region. It is a culmination of a range of arts and cultural activities undertaken by Saltwater Freshwater Arts during each calendar year, providing an authentic Aboriginal experience for visitors and local communities.

Saltwater Freshwater Festival 2012 will be held on Australia Day 2012 in Taree, so mark it in your diary for your next big event to attend.
