CWA on show

2021 CWA exhibition in Kyneton (supplied).

The best regional talent will be on show in Lancefield with the Country Women’s Association Central Highlands Group holding its creative art exhibition on April 29 and 30.

The exhibition will include entries from 11 branches, which ranges from Craigieburn to Heathcote, and Gisborne to Romsey.

Creative Arts Convenor from the Sunbury Stars Branch Bev Goodman said the exhibition will be held at the Mechanic’s Institute in Lancefield and they are expecting it to be the best exhibition yet.

“We welcome members, friends, family and all of the communities in and around the Macedon Ranges to visit us,” Ms Goodman said.

“Our skills and competitive spirit [will be] on show across 222 entry categories.”

Ms Goodman said over 50 women have entered the exhibition, with many submitting multiple entries.

“We have 54 [women] entered so far, nine of these entries are under 16 years old,” she said.

“One member from the CWA Kyneton Twilighters branch has put in 44 entries, [which are] all preserves, jams and jellies.”

Along with the exhibition, the branches will be cooking up a storm with home-style catering available, craft demonstrations, and a raffle on the day.

Entry to the exhibition is $5, with children under 16 free, and the presentation for the winners will take place at 1.30pm on Sunday, April 30.
