THANK YOU: The Refinery Showcase 5.0 in pictures

Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate as our 5.0 cohort launched, relaunched and expanded their creative businesses on Monday night. What an evening!

Musician Hayden Hack welcomed guests as they arrived and mingled in the courtyard at Venue 114, and also entertained throughout the interval whilst the venue staff kept us all fed and watered. With the stage awash with purple, Yanni van Zijl’s incredible installation gave life and illuminated the right-hand side as the cohort delivered their presentations. Each and every one of our 18 creatives gave it their all, and we could not be more proud. It was fantastic meeting new people and reconnecting with so many familiar faces, including councillors, decision-makers and shakers, festival directors + teams, business owners, creatives and program alumni.
