Plunge into Arts & Culture in 2025

Published on 11 November 2024

Clarence Valley creatives, cultural businesses, and organisations are invited to submit events for inclusion in the 2025 Plunge Festival.

Art exhibitions, music, dance and theatre performances, open studios, artist trails or creative workshops for all ages are encouraged to register before Monday 6 January 2025 to be included in the festival program.

The 2025 festival will run from 29 March through to 30 April and promotion is free for organisations based in the Clarence Valley. The Program will be released early February online and distributed through Clarence Valley Council offices, libraries, and galleries as well as arts and cultural businesses and organisations throughout the region.

Clarence Valley Mayor Ray Smith said he is excited to see what will be on offer for the 2025 program.

“The Plunge program highlights the best of what our region has to offer for locals and visitors who want to try something creative or take in a show or performance.
“I’d like to encourage members of the arts & culture sector to take part and showcase the creativity that exists in the Clarence Valley.”

Clarence Valley Council is pleased to support the Plunge Arts & Culture Festival and assist the growth of our cultural economy. Since 2013 more than 2000 events have been promoted through the festival program.

The creative arts are a powerful tool for social engagement and connection for our region. Arts and Culture projects share the stories about where we live and who we are, addressing some of the most pressing challenges we face today. They also bring people together and are a critical element for building and maintaining our community networks.
