Shifting Ground included 9 workshops and artist talks and 5 performance events, as well as 4 exhibitions in offsite spaces.

Their common aim was to link people to art, land and culture, responding to the arid lands on a physical, social and cultural level, telling stories of people and place and exploring sustainability and ecology.
Attendance across the program was over 4000.
