2018

Art and creativity will be at the heart of Panboola wetlands Saturday 28 April 2018. The Pambula Wetlands and Heritage Project, in collaboration with the Lonely Arts Club Pambula, have organised Ephemeral – a one day festival – to celebrate the landscape of Panboola and the creativity it inspires.

The community is invited to come between 9am-2pm and wander the grounds of the wetlands and enjoy in-situ temporary sculptures, installations of art, craft demonstrations, acoustic music and stalls. Book into workshops and try woodcarving, textile art and screenprinting.

Ephemeral 2018 enjoys the generous support of the Country Arts Support Program - Regional Arts NSW.
