To the organisers: congratulations on a great effort. We’d expected to strike problems at the inaugural Castlemaine Jazz Festival but had none. Such a good vibe, too. (Even the weather was great!)
We can only hope that you had enough fun to make it happen again in 2015 – perhaps extending into Monday.
On Fri, 23 May 2014, Ruskin Park Primary School celebrated its 50th anniversary at Wyreena Gallery: a cocktail party in the atrium to the music of Jazz Notes.
Ann Craig teaches various intruments at Ruskin Park so, naturally, it was to her that they turned for the event’s music.
