The chilly weather was the perfect backdrop for some indoor fun for children on Wednesday, July 9.

Children gathered at Echuca library for a Echuca Moama Winter Blues Festival guitar painting sessions.

The guitar painting sessions are just some of the fun activities for children to enjoy these school holidays.
