ASSFEST M24

09.05 - 18.05 | NAARM / MELBOURNE

THE SECOND ASSFEST
WAS ACTUALLY INCREDIBLE.

A bush festival style opening night in the inner city, with blazing fires and performances.

18 workshops taught by 18 facilitators over 2 days,
featuring international and interstate educators as well as local faves.

A truly baccanalian Temple Night led by an incredible international team of Temple Guides
with more amazing (and messy!) performances.


Just incredibly massive amounts of gratitude all round really.
For our facilitators, for sharing their knowledge.​
For our attendees, for showing up and opening up to this experience.
​For our volunteers who made this event run so gently...
And for our BTS crew - Carina, Curie, Charlotte, Maddy the Cat and Erin - We Love Ya Fam!
