This years event will be held on September 3rd 2011 11am – 9pm

Due to funding constraints, and our belief that our event should be free to the public. we will be unable to have the usuall line up of great artist. but fear not we will be having one very special guest performance from 7pm, live theartre performances, free food, workshops, stalls, facepainting, dance, beatbox, sounsystem, and more. . . . .
