CERES Autumn Festival 2014

March 21, 2014 ChitaLeave a comment

I LOVE this place! CERES Environmental Park in East Brunswick. I would live here if they would allow it!

Instead I’ll just have to make do with enjoying their Autumn Festival, which is always amazing!

Urban Street Food will be there and we will be serving our Spring Rolls and our Gluten Free/Vegan Rice Paper Rolls.

We shopped ethically for this event with our organic fruit & vegetables coming from Replenish in Williamstown.

Our eggs come from chickens who are genuinely able to freely roam about.

And our organic chicken comes from Inglewood farms.

All our packaging on the day is minimal and is compostable.

The Autumn Festival is HUGE and is such a great day of fun and education for everyone, kids and adults alike!

Festival of Live Art (FOLA)

Presented by Arts House

Arts House will erupt into a giant four-day live art experience, animating every space with over 20 projects including one-off encounters, durational works, short performances, club nights and more.

The Festival of Live Art (FOLA) hits Melbourne for the first time in March, with performances, experiences and happenings that defy convention and put everything on the line to seduce, cajole and provoke.

Catch Game Show from Thursday, Sam Halmarack and the Miserablites (UK) from Friday, and don’t miss Saturday’s Live Art Dance Party. There’s more though – at North Melbourne Town Hall on Friday night and Saturday, over 15 live artists will animate every space, creating durational, one-off encounters, short performances, works in development, installations and general good times – all free! Come and explore, hang in the bar, see a show, watch a band and grab one or all of the experiences on offer. Plus you can continue well into the night at the FOLA club from 9.30pm at the Meat Market from Thursday to Saturday!

On Sunday head to the Meat Market – where you can come and go as you like between a ten-hour endurance printmaking performance complete with live bands (culminating in a human live branding) at Performprint; as well as The Long Table – a free-form discussion hosted by UK artist Lois Weaver. Short attention span? Never fear: on the hour, every hour are performances throughout Meat Market, North Melbourne Town Hall and the Warehouse which will keep your mind occupied.

Most events are free, with some ticketed performances. Drop by, catch a show and experience FOLA!”

Hanging Rock Craft Market

The Craft Market at Hanging Rock is always such a special event due to both the incredible array of talented stall holders and the natural beauty of the park.

Urban Street Food will be there this Sunday with our crunchy, hot spring rolls!

“Craft Markets Australia will host two special craft and produce markets at this well known tourism icon yearly. Visitors can expect to find an excellent variety of both local and regional stalls offering quality Australian Made products, delicious gourmet foods and fresh home grown produce.”

“The Macdeon Ranges is less than an hour’s drive from Melbourne along the Calder Freeway and only half that time from Melbourne’s Tullamarine Airport. Hanging Rock is easily accessed from the A79 Calder Freeway which passes by on the eastern side of Woodend or via Mt Macedon or from the M31 Hume Highway by turning off at Kilmore and travelling through Lancefield, or alternatively from Wallan via Romsey. There’s ample parking, great public amentitites and easy walking.”

“Entry fee $5 (half price, normally $10)Parking is supervised by the Shire of Macedon. Normally $10 per car per to enter the Reserve. On Market days, patrons will be charged only $5 per car for full access to the Reserve, including Hanging Rock.”
