The Geelong Memorial Brass Band return to Geelong After Dark in their second year at Central Geelong's pop up night of arts. Join them for "Brass in the CBD..."
Alchemy 7 is a dynamic collaboration of artists seeking to create innovative and imaginative installations using diverse elements. Individual artists respond to the environment, space and time.
The artists involved in this installation - Cosmic Retort - are Michael Gray, Amanda Hills and Rebecca Morton. Amanda has collaborated with Michael Gray to create an beautiful, towering dress woven out of fine copper wire. Rebecca will ascend the dress and sing beautiful operatic arias. Inspired by the blue, alien Diva from the film "5th Element" and by the masked spectacle of the Venice Carnevale, this work aims to transport you to from the ordinary to the strange and extraordinary.
The Geelong Symphony Orchestra launched earlier this year to great acclaim as it establishes itself as the region’s leading symphony ensemble. For Geelong After Dark, the GSO has selected some of its finest players to perform for you. Enjoy.

This multi-media installation explores the idea of lifelessness; as both a state of mind and a way of escape. Sheer and penetrable walls confine the ‘self’ and act as a fragile barrier from the ‘other’. The light bulges at the seams of the cage-like structure, alluding to the domination of the internal self over the body.
Fantastical things happen at the National Wool Museum when the sun goes down and the lights dim. Classic silent films and prowls by amber light with Gertie the Dinosaur, The Ghost of Slumber Mountain and creatures of the dead zoo lurking nearby.
A series of votive shrines, progressively installed in empty shop doorways, "Thank You. Please Come Again!" is a devotional work by Geelong’s Retail Cargo Cult. The small shrines, handmade by community members and recalling outsider art, will be illuminated by miniature shopping bags.
