Open Casket

Open Casket is the Goldfields Gothic Festival of Dark Ideas Community Access (Free) Program. Community-led (free) events, exhibitions and activities to die for. A new community-driven component of our festival, this exciting inclusive, die-verse program features local artists and groups initiating and producing their own events.
Gothic Goldfields supports community contributions and emerging artists and producers, and we encourage your support too, to take a chance and come taste what Open Casket has to offer.
Open Casket is a lucky dip of talks, conversations, exhibitions and performances and will be a highlight of the 2023 Goldfields Gothic Festival of Dark Ideas.
