Join us at Mirramu Creative Arts Centre for an informal light supper to welcome the new year and hear about planned workshops, retreats and performances coming up in 2025. The focus will be on developing, sharing and igniting creative practice.

A particularly exciting development is that Vivienne Rogis, Mirramu Dance Company co-founder, who has been living in Melbourne for the last 12 years has come home to Canberra. Viv will be working with Elizabeth on new programs for Mirramu and is looking forward to sharing her passion for creative practice and movement as medicine for the body and mind.
