What is happening at the Festival?
The Melton Lifelong Learning Festival is a whole community event that provides opportunities for FREE learning activities across the City of Melton from 5-7 October 2018.
The Festival offers everyone in our community a chance to investigate new learning experiences, meet and connect with new people and discover new interests..
The exciting world of lifelong learning will be promoted at the Festival through a multitude of varied events including: performances, taster sessions, displays, lectures, try-it sessions, walks, demonstrations and workshops.
The festival program is packed with events that help make Melton not only a learning City, but an inclusive, learning community.
