"A fizzing festival of exciting happenings is coming your way this Friday. A showcase of living passions has sprung up at The Arts House this week for the exhibition Passionistas. This collaborative photography project presented by (COLLAB)² aims to raise awareness of our local & homegrown passionistas.
