Lose yourself in Melbourne this winter in ways other than good ol’ (non-stop characteristic mall-to-mall/store-to-store/warehouse-to-warehouse) shopping and the AFL/NRL footy season.

The following design arts programmes and events will be coming soon this winter season:

Pixar: 20 Years of Animation, 28 June - 14 October
Melbourne Design Festival, 3 - 15 July
Melbourne International Film Festival, 25 July - 12 August
Laneway Commissions 2007, July 2007 onwards.

There are more events lined up! Non-artsy people, there are plenty for you too. Head down to the Melbourne Visitor Centre down at Federation Square and get yourself a Winter print catalogue - also, real visitors may like to conveniently reach for the tiny pink booklet by the entrance that says Melbourne’s Shopping Guide (or something to that effect).

Better than travelling halfway across Victoria to cause an avalanche while you roll down Mt. Buller. I kid, I kid.
