Vision

Culture Camp comes to Nimbin for the 30th Anniversary Celebrations of the Aquarius Festival and will set up base node at Djanbung Gardens from May 10-24, establishing a living culture to facilitate plurivocal celebrations between all Aquarians: past, present and future. Holding space/time respectfully and performatively, singing up the multifarious perspectives of this unique gathering of individual spirits in transformation towards new potentials. Camp, market, and community evolving as an energetic field for cultivation of living stories. Culture Camp will be open throughout the entire festival as a plexus for gathering with specific 'open house' days on 11-12, 19-20 and 22-23 of May. Participation through intelligent-trading: donation or exchange.
