Foggy Mountain Music and Arts Festival


Foggy Mountain Music and Arts Festival

Cindy McLEISH (Eildon) (09:43): The Foggy Mountain Music and Arts Festival is promoted as three days of country, bluegrass, folk, art, bush dancing competitions, hot rods and more in Kinglake. It provided a wonderful range of art demonstrations and concerts spread across the community centre, the Songbird Cafe and Larder and John and Helen’s Kinglake Pub. There was something for everyone on offer, including the Kinglake art show. I particularly enjoyed the community concert. Talented locals David and Merelyn Carter, aka Carter and Carter, worked with the students at Flowerdale, Toolangi, Strathewen, Middle Kinglake, Kinglake West and Kinglake primary schools to write and produce their own songs and then sing them at the concert. It is such a wonderful initiative, and I congratulate them.
