Ten Days on the Island

15 Mar 2013 - 24 Mar 2013

Come join with us as the world's islands cross the cultural divide. Ten Days on the Island offers an extraordinary program exploring the cultural uniqueness of islands, featuring international artists and events from island locations alongside Australia's finest talent. We invite you to join artists from Australia and around the globe who come to Tasmania to share their stories and revel in what makes us distinct and individual as islanders. For ten wonderful days get out and about, off the beaten track into the sheds and barns, stately homes, halls, museums and theatres across the length and breadth of the state. You have the chance to see and hear the extraordinary works from many artists from Australia and other countries as they tell the stories of how island life has shaped their dance, theatre, music, opera, film, literature, and gastronomy. It's also a chance to combine travel and culture - you can choose to see the various performers as they journey to venues around the Island.
