Joy&whimsy is an event series based on the unceded lands of the Jagera and Turrbal people in Magandjin. May 15-17 is a weekend long joy&whimsy bonanza in collaboration with echo & bounce - a community-centric affair, a place for connection, conversation and multi modal art. This series has a focus on queer & femme mixed-genre musos in so called australia with an emphasis on safety, respect and zero tolerance for anti-social behaviour 

We acknowledge and pay our respects to the Jagera and Turrbal people, and all First Nations people on these lands. May your sovereignty never be ceded, and may we move gently as these lands remain a place for connection, gathering, community, art and care. We acknowledge the ongoing resistance to colonisation - always was always will be aboriginal land.
