The Gertrude St Projection Festival 2010

2010 Festival HAS LAUNCHED!!

We would like to welcome you all to Gertrude St and this 3rd Gertrude St projectionFestival. This event is about celebrating our diversity and promoting respect for all the people that make up our community. We do it through sharing art. We are very proud of how the festival has brought many social and community groups, as well as artists, traders and residents together. The 12 months of planning and work of all these groups come together in these 10 nights of projections. I think this is so neatly summed up in our theme Me. You. Us

Let the fun begin. ENJOY!
