2011 Program

2011 Program

This year the Spirit of the Land Festival  8th and 9th of October, we have moved back to the main street of Lockhart taking advantage of the beautiful verandahs. The National Farm Art Award, again the centerpiece of the Festival, is part of the "Sculptures by the Lagoon" exhibition, situated at the Lockhart Caravan Park. Two new categories have been added to this exhibition space, "Garden Art", and "Silhouettes'.

As in previous years there is a Fine Arts exhibition housed at the Memorial Hall, this year we have added a number of student catagories in both the fine arts and the sculpture sections.

Our "Make it, Bake it, Grow it or Breed it" Farmers Market and other stalls will be scattered under the verandahs of the main street and in the Caravan Park. The Market Stalls will be running for the two days of the Festival, but the street will remain open to traffic. Come along and select from a vast array of home grown produce of the finest quality, or find the treasure among some one else's trash in the Shire garage sale on the Sunday!

Local venues will be entertaining the visitors during the Saturday evening, so with lots to see and do, a visit to Lockhart this weekend is a must.
