Fast becoming a favourite on the Sydney calendar, Surry Hills Festival is back for 2014, and the first program announcement has now been made.
A theme for the festival this year is Stories, Love and Tales, and the Surry Hills Song Competition final will feature songwriters performing their songs around that theme. Likewise, a series of intimate projections by Esem Projects will reflect the theme and the history of the suburb.
Meanwhile, Nigel Sense’s portraiture features in The Mills Of Surry Hills, an interactive installation that will roll out in Surry Hills up to and during the festival.
Surry Hills Festival 2014 is on Saturday September 27. Bands and DJs can still apply to participate (deadline this Friday August 8), as can local creative spaces (deadline Friday August 15). For more info, head to surryhillsfestival.com.
