The legendary music vibes will continue at the James Morrison Workshop with Morrison fans given the opportunity to meet the man himself during a workshop held the following day where he will give a 'Life in Music' talk.

Starting at 9am on Monday June 13, the workshop will be at the Grenfell Showground Pavilion. Workshop participants will gain insight into the vast experience and wealth of knowledge that the multi-talented icon has gained over his lifetime.

This workshop is not just about jazz. Students and musicians are encouraged to bring their instruments for a dynamic learning and creative experience.

This is the ultimate opportunity for musicians to hear first-hand all about being in a band, performance techniques, playing techniques, and topics relevant to the audience, as James tailors his workshop to cater for those attending.

All participants are required to register. Tickets are $35 for adults and $25 for students. Get more information and book tickets via the Henry Lawson Festival Website.

Now in its 63rd year, the 2022 Henry Lawson festival will run from June 9-13. The event marks the centenary of Henry Lawson's death. Lawson was born on the Grenfell Goldfields in 1867 and the festival was established to commemorate his extensive contribution to the arts during his time.

Lawson's legendary Australian stories and poetry were acclaimed throughout his life and have continued to be celebrated in the 100 years since he passed.

The festival is renowned for introducing Lawson's work to generations of fans and aims to promote aspiring artistic endeavours. The event also showcases the Grenfell region's heritage and tourist attractions with entertainment for everyone including a vibrant static street parade, market stalls and performers.

Art exhibitions, guinea pig races, a woodchop, car show, blade shearing demonstrations, fashion parades, busking competitions, coach rides, and poetry reading are among the many other items on the festival agenda.

The 2022 Henry Lawson Festival and concert is supported by the Department of Regional NSW.

A full festival itinerary and more information will be coming available as the festival organisation finalises via the new website.
