WHAT IS FLOAT?
FLOAT is a STUDIO – for lake-loving artists-in-residence and environmental scientists FLOATing on Lake Tyers. FLOAT is an ARTWORK in itself. FLOAT will provide a model for creative environmental stewardship in small towns. We will build a COMMUNIVERSITY based on what we learn
WHAT’S THE POINT?
FLOAT will tell the world what a special place we have. And remind us all to protect it, to enjoy it, to explore it. To galvanise us all a little more, to do that - with gusto! And to connect us across the Lake Tyers Catchment - with our mutual love of stories, knowledge, & nature. We expect it to drive economic outcomes as a model for small towns.
