One of Australia’s largest and most vibrant music and arts gatherings, the annual Woodford Folk Festival, returns for its 31st year this December 27 to January 1.  Prior to announcing their most diverse programme to date on October 15, Woodford is thrilled to unveil the poster for this year’s festival.

Woodford Folk Festival’s artist in residence, Gavin Ryan, has brought this year’s theme, “How We Wonder” to life in a dynamic image. Characterised by Ryan’s stunning attention to detail and vibrant colour choices, the poster is a cosmic explosion. Exploring the power of imagination, Woodford promises to take you on a journey of creativity, solitude and connection. Gravitating into the unknown and the undiscovered, the poster reveals the magic of Woodford.

Organisers have also announced that this poster will be the first of a triptych that will conclude on the third year with three posters joined together revealing the conclusion of a story trilogy.
