The 11 branches of CWA include Gisborne, Romsey, Craigieburn, Heathcote.

While enjoying the creative arts, visitors can treat themselves to lunch of various foods, including soup, scones and sweet treats.

For this upcoming event, visitors can buy the members’ homemade goods, such as jams and marmalades.

CWA state vice-president Amanda Millar said, “this will be a fantastic event, showcasing the best art, craft and cooking skills from Sunbury and the wider Central Highlands Group of branches.”

“I look forward to attending this every year, and of course I make sure I have a scone and a cuppa with a friend while I’m there.”
