Mornington Peninsula Shire Council launches the very first DRIFT Festival of Art, Music and Celebration on April 21.

For 11 days in Autumn, DRIFT will bring the Peninsula’s venues, places and spaces to life with art of all disciplines, including performance, music, visual arts, film, public art installations, multimedia and projections, writing and literature and local food and wine, offering exciting new opportunities to experience the best of the region.

DRIFT is more than just a vehicle for creativity. It’s the visible patterns on our vast land and seascapes, and on its people. Drift reveals the energy of movement; a state of constant change that draws inspiration from the past and points to the future, finding new patterns among the old, and providing unique and memorable experiences for each moment in time.

DRIFT aims to nurture and celebrate our shared identity as well as our differences. It honours our creative community while also bringing fresh new talent into our region to inspire creative and artistic practices and broaden our perspectives. It’s the optimal backdrop to explore our incredible region, and a timely call to action for participation and connectedness.

Come and immerse yourself in this continuity of history. Come and drift with us. Thursday 21 April – Sunday 1 May.
