The program
Winter Wonderland
Winter Wonderland is a one-night only contemporary art event in one of Western Sydney’s last remaining fun parks, O'Neill's Adventureland. Presented by Campbelltown Art Centre, The night will combine fairy-floss, snow cones, rides, bands and performances, all in the amazing landscape of a semi-ruined amusement park. Winter Wonderland will be an experience that probes the inventive, psychedelic and unique world of the fun park.
Curated by Zanny Begg and Megan Monte. Featured artists include Heath Franco, Karen Therese, Rosie Deacon, Singing Sadie, Sadar Ahmed, White Knuckle Fever and Renny Kodgers.

Last Adventure
As part of Winter Wonderland emerging curators from UNSW | Art & Design present Last Adventure, a project that seeks to engage the community through inviting them to share their memories of fun parks in the region.
Last Adventure will explore themes of nostalgia, memory and loss, responding to the site and engaging with the rich amusement park aesthetic. It will also tap into conceptions of abandoned spaces and forgotten milieus in both Western Sydney and communities at large. Perhaps most of all, we encourage the audience to explore, play, and recollect as Adventureland comes to life one last time. This exhibition will include an interactive and participatory installation, as well as hoola hoopers and fire jugglers. Featured artists include Timothy Dwyer, Zachariah Fenn, Hana Hoogedeure, Kata Komlos, Jack Mannix and Giselle Stanboroguh.
