Bendigo Prison Now Performing Arts Precint

On the weekend of the 18th and 19th of April Bendigo's new Ulumbarra Performing Arts Precinct opened for business (search: Ulumbarra Theatre). The location of the precinct, literally inside the old Bendigo Prison, has been a very successful "wow factor" since the project was announced more than 5 years ago. For more information, check out the ABC Bendigo article (at the link below). As someone that helped clear out the prison (as some summer work) I am very interested to see how the space has been used.





Flooding Throughout Bendigo Region

Much of Victoria copped a battering with a deluge of rain over the weekend of the 9th of January 2015. You can read the continuously updating news article about the weekend here. I have uploaded a selection of photos although there are hundreds more on the Bendigo Advertiser website. I am Canberra at the moment so I don't know what's happened at our block but my father-in-law has taken a few photos and I will upload them when I get home on Sunday.
