22.01.2022 Blue Tree Project aims to promote mental health awareness. #itsoktonotbeok More needs to be done to help people with mental health concerns. Stronger support of our professional health system is necessary so we can help people like Jayden - those brave enough to seek help. Tragically, Jayden took his own life after being released from hospital twice in the one day.... He was overlooked in an overwhelmed system which is not made for modern society mental health issues. With this project, we hope to raise awareness around mental wellbeing and help generate change. #YouCanTalk

18.01.2022 The special thing about Lanterns on the Lagoon is the way we as a community, artists, schools and community groups alike, come together and take things that would normally be trash, and often end up in landfill, and turn them into something beautiful. Here are some more of the beautiful sculpture entries from Saturday, and some snaps of the lanterns at dusk. More to follow! ... #watchthisspace #sustainabilty #art #sculpture #community #lanterns #lotl19 #visitsnowyvalleys #tumutregion #sunset #lagoon #lotus #water #coralreef #whirlpool #fish

06.01.2022 We hope you had a very merry Christmas and wish you a Happy New Year! Christmas is a magical time of year, coniciding closely with the Solstice, when the Earth is at its furthest point from the Sun. Our own festival coincides with the Equinox, or when the Earth is at its closet point to the Sun. Whether you were naughty or nice, we hope you had a special celebration with family and friends! ... #christmas #solstice #equinox #lanterns #lotl21 #funfacts #santa #light #xmas19
