How can you be involved in the art exhibition?

We are inviting all members of the public, of any age, to create a piece of art depicting a woman or girl they admire. This person might be a member of your family, someone in your community, a historical figure, a public figure - anyone at all.

The artwork can be of any medium - a painting, drawing, collage, sculpture, a photograph - let your imagination run free.

We would also like to know why you admire the subject.

Stawell Library will showcase the artworks, with the exhibition’s official opening to coincide with the council’s International Women’s Day event in Stawell on March 12.

Entries are to be submitted at Stawell Library by March 5. 

Note, the artwork will be on exhibition from March 12 to 24.
