A new evening designed to celebrate art in all forms was held at Bunjil Place – the City of Casey’s home of the arts.
The free event was a chance to catch the latest gallery exhibition after hours featuring live music and art workshops.
Guests picked up a cocktail and relaxed in the plaza’s lounge chairs, soaking in the reggae and soul performance from Melbourne’s King Canoe.
Australian craft-based designer Kitiya Palaskas led people through a hands-on craft project where they learnt how to make a woven drink stirrer for summer beverages.
Youth arts collective Arts Agitotors explained a range of techniques to bind a paper zine and explored the different themes and ideas in zine making.
Melbourne based artist and educator David Rosetzky presented an artist talk on his creative practice.
Video art from the ACMI collection was also displayed as well as Summer Moods, a series of short films by Paul Fletcher.
More events are coming to Bunjil Place, with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra set to perform on Saturday 29 January.
