HTH creative services lead Michele Rethus declared the season open with a vibrant day of free events on Sunday.
Running from 11am to 3pm, the event provided a preview of the diverse range of performances, exhibitions and programs planned for the year.

Attendees had an exclusive look at upcoming theatre productions, tested different seating options and participated in behind-the-scenes backstage tours.

The newly curated ‘Wimmera Made’ section at the visitor information centre and box office featured local produce and artisan wares.

The upcoming theatre season features a mix of acclaimed performers and local productions, including a performance by Anh Do, the production for younger audiences of ‘Imagine’, the already-sold-out Kitty Flanagan show, and two major productions by Horsham Arts Council.
