The 2012 Share The Spirit Festival will turn the Treasury Gardens into a thriving hub of Indigenous music, dance and culture on Thursday 26th January as part of Melbourne’s official Survival Day celebrations.
Presented by Songlines Aboriginal Music - Victoria’s peak Aboriginal music body - Share The Spirit is the state’s longest running Indigenous music festival and a truly inclusive event which draws on the collective talent, support and passion of the local Indigenous arts community in the delivery of a jam packed program of music, dance and cultural activities.
This year, the event boasts an eclectic mix of established and emerging local Indigenous artists who will perform side-by-side in an effort to increase awareness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture, whilst contributing to the process of political change and reconciliation.
