Darwin Fridge Festival at Malak

Wed, 18 Aug 2010 14:01:18 +0900

Start: 21 Aug 2010 - 10:00am

End: 21 Aug 2010 - 5:00pm

Darwin Community Arts aims to produce a unique, adventurous and distinctly Darwin community festival at Malak. This Festival will involve the whole Darwin community, engage an array of artists (visual artists, performers, graffiti artists, photographers) as well as bring a sense of identity to the central Malak precinct. The event is the Darwin Fridge Festival. Yes Fridge!

The Darwin Fridge Festival, whilst emerged as a tongue-in-cheek joke on a Fringe Festival, has grown into a large scale community event. The humble fridge is a Darwin icon, and Darwin Community Arts wants to explore its possibilities as an art and cultural centrepiece.

The Darwin Fridge Festival will also explore environment themes relating to the fridge such as landfill, energy efficiency and recycling.
