Willunga Almond Blossom Festival

By on May 17, 2018 in

As the Willunga Almond Blossom Festival moves into its 49th year, this festival has gone all out to present a bigger and brighter event with activities for people of all ages. Of course, it wouldn’t be an almond blossom festival without plenty of almond-related activities. At the Almond Hub, visitors can enjoy cooking demonstrations by local chefs, talk to authors of almond-related books, browse the historic display of newspaper articles, stories, ball gowns, and other memorabilia and purchase tasty Willunga almonds. Kids can follow the Children’s Almond Trail (which includes a colouring competition), name the almond tree knocker on the oval, and receive a heart shaped tin full of almonds. And be there on Sunday to enter the almond cracking competition – all ages can take part.

In the Live Music marquee, you will see an eclectic range of artists over the two days, from Willunga High School drama students, to a Ukraine Dance group, Sisters of Abundance, Pulse Band Duo, Cool4kids and young performers such as Kylie Brice and Modern Day Riot. If music is not your scene, there are wild and noisy show rides, craft activities, market stalls, wood turning displays, pony rides and dog agility demonstrations, plus a visit from Radicool Reptiles. You might even meet a beautiful fairy – and be sure to see the fireworks display on Saturday night, which is always a highlight of the festival weekend.

No Willunga event is complete without a range of delicious food, wine and beer. Whether you want real ‘carnie food’, Greek Souvlaki, pizza, simple healthy snacks or Asian dishes, you will find them at the Willunga Almond Blossom Festival. Love at Thirst Sight Wine Bar will provide mulled wine and almond inspired cocktails, while Little Buddy Brewery offers their craft beer.

There is so much more to see and do, including the Almond Blossom Parade down High Street on Sunday morning.

Louise Devenish – Music for Percussion and Electronics

By on May 29, 2018 in

Enter a breathtaking world of percussive sound in Adelaide’s most haunting location, as one of Australia’s foremost percussionists extends the comprehensive sounds of the glockenspiel, the beauty of the vibraphone, and the deep resonance of gongs, through electronic processing, samples and sub woofers.

In association with South Australia’s history festival, Louise Devenish performs in Glenside’s Z-Ward – Adelaide’s decommissioned prison for the criminally insane. Featuring the work of Australian composers Andrián Pertout, Stuart James, Cat Hope and Kate Moore, Devenish’s ‘breathtakingly deft delivery and sculptor-like attention to detail’ will be complemented by visual projections mapped to the instruments on stage by New York artist Ross Karre.

Louise Devenish is the Head of Percussion at the University of Western Australia Conservatorium of Music, and regularly performs throughout Australasia, Europe, North America and the UK as a soloist and with ensembles including the Decibel New Music Ensemble and Speak Percussion. She was awarded the 2016 Australian Music Centre and APRA/AMCOS Art Music State Award for Performance of the Year.

In Adelaide for one night only.
