Since 2011 Melbourne Festival
has been joining forces with
Multicultural Arts Victoria to
present Igniting Imagination,
a project that builds dynamic
new bonds with our culturally
and linguistically diverse (CALD)
communities, and brings
exceptional artistic talent from
Australia’s emerging, Indigenous
and refugee communities to the
stage.
