Cementa Festival Returns to Kandos for Four Days and Nights of Contemporary Art and Culture
KANDOS, AUSTRALIA — Cementa Festival is set to return to Kandos for another vibrant edition of contemporary art and culture from 19–22 September 2024.
Celebrated as one of Australia’s most beloved regional art meccas, Cementa promises an exciting and unforgettable experience under the curatorial leadership of Dr Daniel Mudie Cunningham and First
Nations curator Jo Albany.
Cementa24 warmly invites friends and strangers, supporters, relatives, and newcomers to join over 50 artists for four days and nights of immersive art in the post-industrial town of Kandos on Wiradjuri Country. Attendees will experience a diverse murmuration of artworks, including video, performance,
installation, sound art, photography, painting, and sculpture. These works will be showcased in unique venues such as backyards, shop fronts, empty paddocks, and school halls, each piece responding
to the culture, history, environment, and community of Kandos and its regional setting.
Cementa24 is thrilled to present new works by artists from across Australia, all of whom have created pieces that resonate with Kandos and its regional context. This year will highlight the fusion of work and
play as a core theme, celebrating Country, community, connection, and conversation
