True North Festival: our wrap

As part of Bupa's best blog competition for 2015

The True North festival is an art festival which is hosted by the City of Darebin over one weekend in mid April. It is a community event bringing everyone together. There is food and popcorn and even movies showing but you have to pay to get in (for the movies that is).



The smell of food at the Darebin arts centre greeted me. That and the bells of the boomgate.

We went to some of these.

The Wild about Melbourne Market
This was little and very kitchy. In fact I'll let the photos and the captions do the talking.
Face washer for $15

Candles

Badges


Childrens activities

Handmade Jewellery

Body scrub


Life Drawing and the Garden party
Well there really wasn't that much of a garden party and the life drawing was in the same place. I had heaps of fun being an artist for a day and sketching 8 models using charcoal. At times the charcoal was messy.


And yes you could say that there wasn't a garden party. It was wet and rainy and not many vendors wanted to come to this event. The music was good though and it worked well with the life drawing.

Many thanks to Weekend notes for the recommendation
