Creative Gippsland

2012 theme: e-motion
The Festival image for 2012 has been chosen, and the winner is an entry from Darryl Whittaker. The image is a photograph of the actual inflatable Creative Gippsland caravan that travels around the regions accompanying arts events during the Festival.
This year the caravan is particularly appropriate to 2012 because the wonderful live show 'Caravan Burlesque' by Finucane and Smith will be performed in each Shire during May.
Keep an eye on the website for further details...you will not want to miss this one!
