A skilled farm dog can accomplish complex tasks in minutes—tasks that would take a human hours. More than just a worker, they are loyal companions who genuinely enjoy their work. Plus, they are far more affordable to employ than human workers. Raising a great farm dog isn’t just about natural ability—it also requires proper training. That’s where Gary White and his internationally renowned Working Dog School come in. Since 1999, Gary has been traveling across Australia and around the world, holding clinics to share his expertise in working dogs with farmers. His work has taken him to the Americas, Europe, and Britain, and he’s always in high demand. Gary’s connection to working dog training runs deep. Born and raised in Nyngan, Gary grew up surrounded by dogs. His father established White’s Kelpie Stud nearly 60 years ago and was one of the founding members of the Working Kelpie Council. “Dad always managed properties and had working dogs to assist him. On the farms, he worked alone, and the dogs were like his right-hand men,” Gary explains. “When I was a kid, Nyngan was remote, with no television or other entertainment, so I spent all my time outside, and the farm dogs were my constant companions. I had a very outdoor childhood, and the dogs were integral to it. Much of what I know about working dogs, I learned from my father.” Gary’s early exposure to working dogs came when he was just a child. “I started working with dogs very young,” he recalls. “I loved helping my dad with cattle and sheep. He would leave me with the sheep, accompanied by one or two of his older trained dogs. Working with and training dogs is in my blood.” After building a local reputation for training dogs, Gary was invited to the US to lead specialised clinics. These clinics, typically held on farms, focus on helping dog owners work with their dogs' natural instincts. The first US clinics were so successful that Gary began receiving invitations to travel to other countries as well. “No matter where I am in the world, I train dogs the same way. The method doesn’t change. Even though dogs may be used differently abroad—like in the US, Canada, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, or Germany—the basics remain the same,” Gary says. “While they might not be working with the large numbers of livestock we manage in Australia, the core principles of training are universal.” Join Gary for this FULL DAY workshop: 9:00am - Arrival 9:30am - Welcome and Introduction 10:30am - Morning Tea (supplied) 11:00am - Practical Session 1 12:30pm - Lunch (supplied) 1:30pm - Practical Session 2 3:00pm - Afternoon Tea (supplied) 3:15pm - PracticalSession 3 4:30pm - Close This workshop will be open for up to 12 participants and their working dog, and as many spectators that are keen to come and watch on. More the merrier! The location of this event will be annouced closer to the workshop. Due to very limited spots being available, we request for your appreciation that there will be a waiting list - if your circumstances change and you're no longer able to attend, please contact Jai Edwards, j.edwards@hepburn.vic.gov.au, with as much notice as possible to allow us to fill the spot.The location of this workshop will be confirmed closer to the date. Do you have a property that might be suitable for to hold this event? We're looking for a property that can supply a flat area, a 12 panel arena and 12 sheep!

7 d’octubre, 11 de novembre, 16 de desembre, 13 de gener, 10 de febrer, 10 de març, 14 d’abril, 12 de maig, 9 de juny Coordinat per Laura Fernández ¿Alguien ha dicho (NOVELA DIVERTIDA)? ¿No? Ehm, bueno, ¿no acabo de decirlo yo? Oh, pero ¿existen? ¡Por supuesto! ¿Y dónde están? ¡Por todas partes! Y entonces, ¿por qué parece que después de La conjura de los necios, de John Kennedy Toole, el canon literario —¿El canon literario? ¿Cuál de ellos? ¿Existe uno solo? ¿De veras? ¿Por qué?— no ha sido capaz de (ACEPTAR) ningún otro (CLÁSICO), así, con mayúsculas, de la (COMEDIA)? ¿La verdad? Creo que temen descubrir que el mundo es un lugar también (DIVERTIDO), y se empeñan en esconderlo, pero ¿quién? ¡Los hacedores de canones, por supuesto! Pero el mundo está repleto —cualquier librería lo está— de novelas divertidísimas, como las nueve que propone este club que podría llamarse (¡ADIÓS, LUNES DEPRIMENTE!), o (¡CARCAJADAS ASEGURADAS!) o (¡CONVIÉRTETE EN EL ÚNICO, O LA ÚNICA, DE TUS AMIGOS, O AMIGAS, QUE CONOCE UN PEQUEÑO PUÑADO DE NOVELAS DIVERTIDAS, Y CÓMO ENCONTRARLAS!), pero también podría llamarse como el clásico de Vladimir Nabokov, Risa en la oscuridad, porque en parte, eso es lo que hacemos cuando leemos, reírnos a solas, y a veces de cosas delirantemente terribles, porque ¿acaso no amamos la absurdamente encantadora manera en que el ser humano habita el mundo? Pasen, lean y, por una vez, ¡DIVIÉRTANSE! *** La hija de Robert Poste, Stella Gibbons (Impedimenta) Sheila Levine está muerta y vive en Nueva York, Gail Parent (Libros del Asteroide) Fuck America, Edgar Hilsenrath (Errata Naturae) Atracón, Douglas Coupland (Alianza) Por qué haría yo, Mary Robison (Malas Tierras) La guía del autoestopista galáctico, Douglas Adams (Anagrama) Stern, Bruce Jay Friedman (La Fuga) Tú también puedes tener un cuerpo como el mío, Alexandra Kleeman (Gatopardo) Música acuática, T. C. Boyle (Impedimenta) *** Laura Fernández (Terrassa, 1981) es autora de seis novelas: Bienvenidos a Welcome (Elipsis 2008 /Literatura Random House, 2019), Wendolin Kramer (Seix Barral, 2011), La Chica Zombie (Seix Barral, 2013), El Show de Grossman (Aristas Martínez, 2013), Connerland (Literatura Random House, 2017) y La señora Potter no es exactamente Santa Claus (Literatura Random House, 2021). Ésta, su última novela, fue distinguida con el Premio Ojo Crítico de Narrativa 2021, el Premio Finestres de Narrativa en Castellano 2021, el Premio Las librerías Recomiendan a mejor libro de ficción de 2021, y el Premio Kelvin 505, además de con una Mención Especial de los Premios Ciutat de Barcelona. Su obra ha sido traducida al francés, al italiano, al inglés y al japonés, y sus cuentos han sido incluidos en numerosas antologías, y reunidos finalmente en un volumen de relatos escogidos titulado Damas, caballeros y planetas (Random, 2023). Su obra más reciente es un pequeño ensayo sobre el mundo como lugar fantástico, una misteriosa crónica desde el aún más misterioso Lago Ness, titulado Hay un monstruo en el lago (Debate, 2024). Sus historias tienen el punch de un Douglas Adams que hubiera leído más de la cuenta a Stella Gibbons, y la ambición de complejo mundo aparte de un Thomas Pynchon fan de Stephen King. También es periodista y crítica literaria y musical, y una apasionada entrevistadora de escritores. Actualmente escribe principalmente para El País, aunque ha colaborado en una infinidad de medios en el pasado. En el pasado también trabajó en un videoclub y montó una banda. Tiene dos hijos y un montón de libros divertidos. Information Source: Llibreria Finestres | eventbrite

En las páginas de esta selección desfilan criaturas frágiles y feroces, niños y adolescentes que, acorralados por el drama o el abandono, desarrollan comportamientos extraños, crueles o siniestramente lúcidos. Criaturas solitarias, hipersensibles a veces, todas con una asombrosa capacidad de resistencia. Incluso en el paraíso perdido de la inocencia parece no haber lugar para el que no se ajusta a la norma. *** Siempre hemos vivido en el castillo / Sempre hem viscut al castell, Shirley Jackson (Minúscula / L’Altra) El señor de las moscas / El senyor de les mosques, William Golding (Alianza Editorial / Fanbooks) Otra vuelta de tuerca / Un altre pas de rosca, Henry James (Alianza Editorial / Quaderns Crema) La chica que vive al final del camino, Laird Koneing (Impedimenta) Claus y Lucas / Claus i Lucas, Agota Kristof (Libros del Asteroide / Amsterdam) El huésped, Guadalupe Nettel (Anagrama) El quinto hijo, Doris Lessing (DeBolsillo) Brighton Rock, Graham Greene (Libros del Asteroide) Lolita, Vladimir Nabokov (Anagrama / LaButxaca) *** Olga Merino (Barcelona, 1965) es licenciada en Ciencias de la Información y máster en Historia y Literatura Latinoamericanas en el Reino Unido.

Acclaimed Golden Guitar-winning singer-songwriter Melinda Schneider is hitting the road this year to celebrate her highly anticipated album, Tender — her first original album in over a decade. Known for her heartfelt lyrics and soulful melodies, Schneider's new release marks a deeply personal and empowering return to her country music roots, embracing vulnerability, love, and resilience. With Tender, Melinda Schneider continues to forge a powerful connection with her audience through authentic storytelling. The album includes a string of emotionally charged singles that showcase her evolution as both an artist and a woman. Fans will hear a rich exploration of emotional depth and raw honesty through tracks like ‘25 Hours’, ‘Words’ and ‘The Woman’. The new album’s title track, a duet, also features Australian music icon, Deisel. Melinda reflects on the personal journey that Tender represents: “I’ve always been tender — in every sense of the word. As an empath, I feel everything deeply. My tenderness used to feel like a burden, but over time, it became a strength. This album is a celebration of that evolution. Now, I can be tender for my son, gentle with myself, and vulnerable with others.” Alongside her music, Tender includes visual art that complements the album’s themes. Melinda’s unique painting process, which involves applying acrylics to plywood with brushes, twigs, and sponges, reflects the layered rhythms of songwriting and life itself. As Melinda prepares to take her fans on a live journey with Tender, she is excited to share the stories behind the songs, the music, and the art. This album is a reflection of my personal journey, she says. Through these songs, I hope listeners connect through their own stories, feel inspired, and realize just how far they’ve come. The Tender Tour will offer fans a chance to experience Melinda Schneider’s extraordinary new music live, with performances that blend heartfelt emotion and unforgettable melodies. The tour will also feature beloved hits from her iconic career, making it a must-see event for long-time fans and newcomers alike. No BYO food or Alcohol.

Mora Els còmics, com qualsevol mitjà d'expressió, estan plens d'històries i de diferents maneres d'explicar-les: des de l'acostament a la quotidianitat de l'artista Keiler Roberts, passant pel domini experimental del mitjà d'Oliver Schrauwen fins a l'absurdisme naïf de Yusaku Hanakuma. Amb aquest recorregut que es proposa durant tot el curs, descobrirem veus alternatives del novè art; autors que desafien constantment la noció que moltes persones tenen del còmic com un art encotillat. Descobrirem també la proposta d'artistes nacionals i internacionals que, encara que a priori no ho sembli, tenen una sensibilitat molt similar i una manera emocionant, atrevida i desacomplexada d’entendre aquest mitjà. *** Preparada para morder, Keiler Roberts (Alpha Comic) Su Frankenstein, Norikazu Kawashima (Planeta Cómic) Dr. Vértigo, Martí (La Cúpula) El silbido al correr el aire, Louka Butzbach (Fulgencio Pimentel) Tokyo Zombie, Yusaku Hanakuma (Autsaider Cómics) Las locuritas de Úrsula, Sergi Puyol (Apa Apa) Vidas paralelas, Oliver Schrauwen (Fulgencio Pimentel) El buen ciudadano, Andrés Magán (Apa Apa) Hotel Abuel, Marta Altieri (Reservoir Books) *** Alba G. Mora (l'Hospitalet de Llobregat, 1992) és escriptora, editora i lectora primerenca de còmics gràcies a la meravellosa selecció de la Biblioteca Tecla Sala. Des del 2020 dirigeix el segell de còmic de l'editorial barcelonina Alpha Decay, on ha publicat el treball d'artistes com Julia Gfrörer, Connor Willumsen o Keiler Roberts. Aviat veurà la llum la seva primera novel·la, Cosita, publicada a Blackie Books. Quan no està treballant, li agrada passejar i veure pel·lícules de terror.

“Under a big Mallee sky, one pub, one sheep yard and a whole bunch of grinning music lovers - my kind of gig!” - Neil Murray, 2014 performer.

In the not-so-distant future, a heavily pregnant ex-ballerina, a child detective, a bitter puppeteer and a feminist pop princess hurtle towards Mars in a Big Brother-style spaceship. The world is watching. Isn’t it? On the eve of a revolution, Nicki and Caroline attempt to gain control over their lives as their AI superior Alex, dances the night away. And on New Earth, Esta and Isabelle forge hope through a new kind of relationship. Director Olivia Staaf draws on her background in science communication and ecological performance making to realise Control as an experiential voyage for audiences. Spanning across half a century from Melbourne to Mars, Control is a startling and provocative play by Keziah Warner that delves deep into our relationship with technology: its moral ambiguities, its dependencies, and its potential. Control was commissioned by Red Stitch Actors’ Theatre through the INK program and was originally produced by Red Stitch in 2019. Information Source: Theatre Works | eventbrite

Shakespeare's Henry 6 plays are one of the great undiscovered gems of Western Literature. An intoxicating mix of violence, politics and romance, this civil war is as machiavellian as Succession and as brutal as Game of Thrones. Henry 6 is a rare thing - a religious pacifist in a time of war and his wife the opposite - a ferocious mother willing to destroy an entire country to protect those she loves. But family and country are going to unravel, and a gleefully malicious Richard of Gloucester is waiting in the wings to take advantage of this chaos. The Breath of Kings is a rare chance to see these plays in all their glory. Burning House will bring their unique blend of ambition and insight to a repertoire season of the Henry 6 plays and Richard 3, with more adventurous audience members able to watch all plays in a massive five hour long event on weekends. This is theatre at its most ambitious and exciting - and for those of you missing big, festival epics The Breath of Kings is here to deliver. Information Source: Theatre Works | eventbrite
