Rockhampton River Festival is a FREE event. Tickets are not required.
The River Fest 'Together We Create' Project is a new initiative for 2024, giving the opportunity for our community to unleash their creativity and get involved in our 10-year River Fest anniversary celebration.
As part of this project, we invited students from local schools to express their creativity and showcase their favourite thing about Rockhampton or River Festival. The flags created prior to the festival will be displayed during the River Fest at the Walter Reid Cultural Centre as part of our Arts on the Fringe program.
During the River Festival weekend, a drop-in style workshop located in the CQ Contemporary Artists Group Studio at the Walter Reid Cultural Centre will be available for the community to create additional flags and express their favourite thing about Rockhampton or the River Festival.
This workshop suits all ages, and all materials required will be supplied. Flags designed and created during River Fest workshops will be strung around areas of The Walter Reid Cultural Centre.
