Cardinia Cultural Centre Winter-Spring Season kicks off with a bang!
Published: 23 June 2025
The energy was vibrant and electric on the evening of Thursday 12 June, to celebrate the launch of the Winter-Spring season at Cardinia Cultural Centre (CCC).
The CCC’s 2025 Winter-Spring season promises to captivate and engage audiences of all ages with a range of showstopping theatre performances, events and workshops taking over the theatre and exhibition space in the next few months.
“Cardinia Cultural Centre is our region’s leading arts and entertainment centre, and there really is something for everyone to enjoy” says Cardinia Shire Council, Deputy Mayor Cr. Alanna Pomeroy.
“We are so pleased to be able to offer this platform for incredible local and touring artists to showcase their work and bring community together to enjoy the arts and culture alive, here in Cardinia” Cr. Pomeroy says.
Some of the 2025 programmed artists attended the launch, including Miss Lulu Lipstick, the Drag Queen from this season’s variety show, Euphoric and The Sassy Strummers, who performed as guests arrived.
Also in attendance was Robert Michael Young, a Gunnai, Wiradjuri, Gunditjmara, Yorta Yorta, Bunurong man and established artist with artworks and sculptures all over Melbourne.
Robert Michael Young was commissioned to create a National Reconciliation Week mural, that is on display now at the CCC’s Curved Wall space.
“This mural is the story of the Elder wombat taking the younger wombat for them to discover their colour and markings”, he says.
“The thing of a wombat is this strength, they are strong creatures that just do what they do, and other people get blessed. You see that people survive a bushfire in a wombat’s burrow, that's quite powerful, their home is a place of refuge”.
Aside from playing host to a number of showstopping theatre performances, exhibitions and events each season, the CCC is also a function and accessible community space. There are multiple rooms and spaces available for hire for small to large functions and events. Hiring can also include access to in-house catering, audio-visual equipment and a team of experienced event staff to support you. Spaces for hire can be viewed in person or via the CCC website.
The Cardinia Cultural Centre is open Monday to Sunday from 9am to 4pm with the Gallery and Bar open late every Thursday during the winter months for The Thursday Lounge.
