In 2025, we’re trying something different, a unique one-day festival event on Sunday, 1st June – AOL ‘Lite’ Festival.
Why a ‘Lite’ version? The 2024 Festival was a fantastic success thanks to the committee and community. However, hosting a full-scale event like last year requires significant funding, time, and volunteer efforts. Unfortunately, these resources aren’t available this year.
To ensure the community still has an enjoyable event in 2025, we’ve planned a simpler one-day festival focused on the core elements of art, markets and music.
Will the full Festival return? This is up to the Bundeena Maianbar community! A full Festival needs funding, volunteers, and an organising team to make it happen. The Committee are conducting a community survey and hosting a co-design workshop to discuss the Festival’s future and create a sustainable plan.
How can you help?
- Complete the community survey before Sunday May 11th to have your say! https://forms.gle/n4sQNqWFDoA9pA1G8
- Attend the co-design workshop on Sunday June 15th (2.30 – 4.00pm) at Bundeena Community Services Club to help shape the Festival’s future. To register your interest in attending or for more information, please email contact@artofliving.com.au
Let’s work together to keep the Art of Living Festival alive. Many hands make light work!
