Hello, Autumn: What’s Coming Up on the Mornington Peninsula this Autumn

Local Community

 

Darkness has fallen, and the leaves are close behind, which means only one thing – autumn has dawned on Melbourne. Before you run and hide under your doona and grieve the loss of the glorious summertime, take a peek at C&G’s top picks on the Mornington Peninsula during the autumn months.

Mornington Railway

The first three Sundays of April and May welcome traditional train rides from Moorooduc to Mornington. Take in the scenery, sit back and enjoy the ride on the heritage broad gauge railway. Why not treat Mum for Mother’s Day? All Mums will receive a card and a small gift while on board.

Aboriginal Art @ Red Hill

Principal’s Lounge at Red Hill hosts the Aboriginal Art exhibition on the last weekend in April. Take in the culture of our heritage and lose yourself in the vibrant colours and textures of the striking collections. Don’t miss your chance to find out the story behind the art with floor talks from the curators on both Saturday and Sunday.

Flora Australis

Explore the plant world with a journey through time. Discover how Australian flora and fauna have evolved through time with a walking tour through the Royal Botanical Gardens Cranbourne from one of their dedicated guides, and immerse yourself in the diverse colours and scents at Flora Australis this Autumn.
