It’s our 98th year!
With preparations well underway and pre-planning complete for this year’s Eisteddfod, the Committee has also begun planning for our centenary year in 2026. We were delighted our application for a small grant was accepted to dig into the archives and produce a condensed historical snapshot of the Eisteddfod’s longstanding commitment and relevance in the Bendigo arts scene. If anyone has a skilled interest in assisting the committee to produce this keepsake or has historical photographs, we would be keen to hear from you.
We are also happy to announce the size of what was a very, very small Committee has grown this year with the addition of 8 new committee members. This however does not decrease our need for the essential support of our amazing volunteers. It does hopefully mean the Committee might be a little better rested throughout the busy competition period!
As always, we are on the hunt for volunteers to assist when the events are on and want to hear from you. Our child safety policy has been updated and we will require evidence of WWC prior to any volunteer joining us. You will also be provided with our updated volunteer guide.
For entrants: Keep those entries rolling in and your eye on Facebook for updates – See you at the comps!
