Merchandise will be on sale and there will be a silent auction of costumes and props from the film.

The event will raise funds and awareness for the important work of the film’s National Charity Partner Foundation for Indigenous Sustainable Health (FISH).

FISH chief executive Mark Anderson said the screening fitted well as part of the inspiring education and cultural programs Fish was rolling out in partnership with communities and schools, including Mandurah Baptist College and local state schools.

Tickets cost $`12 to encourage as many people as possible to join in the celebration with the option of dressing in their favourite festival gear.

The Three Summers DVD will also be available for $10 with $1 per sale going to FISH.

Tickets and merchandise are available via try.booking.com or contact FISH through their social media or email events@fish.asn.au
