It is with great big feelings mixed in a mixed metaphor cocktail masking an undercurrent of anxious anticipation (and slight dread) that we launch our little festival onto the oceans of the interweb. Our hope is that it sails proudly toward its sunset, throwing art waves onto the information waves and bringing the many curious and fascinating creatures that dwell there to the surface. Perhaps we shall seduce a few unsuspecting travelers into our nets and maybe we will also confuse some people too. We hope this will include you.

Our logo was lovingly cross-stitched by Cementa Co-Director Christine McMillan onto a family heirloom lace tablecloth made by her grandmother in the 1920s. The logo was designed by Carlo Jensen of Peculiar Familia.[/caption]

Also: fair warning – if you are not a happy camper and would like to stay over, I recommend booking accommodation sooner rather than later. There are limited beds in Kandos and Rylstone and those we expect will book out quickly.
