Little Laneway lights up Deloraine

by Lois Rasmussen

DESPITE THE loss of the Craft Fair, the Little Laneway Festival will be going ahead this year.

Local individual and duo artists will bring their works to the Little Laneway during the November long weekend.

This light version of Little Laneway Festival will showcase local and original acts for the entertainment of culture-starved Deloraine and districts.

All of Meander Valley is welcome to come by, not all at once though, to delight in the different artists performing in the Little Laneway between Seppenfelts and the Empire Hotel.

The event will be operating under COVID-19 regulations. Each performer will have their hat ready for tokens of appreciation.

Kat Jeffreys, festival organiser, promises a diverse lineup. ‘We are still working on the lineup but hope some will be playing the blues and there may even be some reggae.’

There will be ukulele skills showcased, many a song and some original compositions will be premièred.

Old favourite harmonies will be part of this cultural event for all to enjoy.

The Little Laneway Festival is in the open air and supports the Meander Valley community’s local artists at a time when they are short on opportunities to display their skills.

Come for the afternoon or just a spell and get your fill of local musicians and singers.

The Little Laneway Festival is on Saturday 31 October and 1 November 2020.

Performances will run from midday to 6pm in the evening
