Join us for an enlightening talk by the film producer of Following the Flow, which tells the story of the Macquarie Wambool River right as the 'worst drought on record' was finally breaking. The film records both the condition of the river and the views of the region's First Nations people, irrigators, graziers, historians, ecologists, water managers, recreational fishers and small business owners.

Date: The fourth Thursday of each month

Venue: The Greens on William, 29 William Street, Bathurst, NSW, 2795

Start time: 5:30 pm for a 6pm talk, then a short Q&A session.

RSVP: Not required, but handy so that the venue knows how many people to expect. RSVP to greeningbathurst@gmail.com

Website: https://www.greendrinks.org/Bathurst

Cost: There will be a $5 entry fee for people who are waged or otherwise able to pay.

The fee covers the cost of the venue and nibbles. For students or those who are less able to pay, a gold coin donation would be appreciated. PLEASE BRING CASH as we do not have an EFTPOS terminal (although the venue does and you can withdraw cash when you buy a drink from the bar). Drinks are pay as you go - available at the bar. There will also be a donations jar for anyone who feels like donating. All donated funds will be used towards travel and accomodation for future speakers.

60 Second Soap Box:

If there is something going on that upsets you, and you want to "name and shame", you can have 60 seconds to jump on the soapbox and proclaim it loud and clear (but please keep it respectful and otherwise appropriate)! Likewise if there is something really good, or an event that you want to publicise - feel free to let everyone know. Just remember - you only have 60 seconds!

For those intersted “Following the Flow” will be screened on Friday the 5th at the The Lithgow Transformation Hub! BOOK HERE
