WOW Longreach

Welcome to WOW Western Queensland (Longreach) which was held 4 – 6 of March 2022 on the traditional land of the Iningai and Bidjara peoples.

This was planned in partnership with the women of Longreach, Red Ridge Interior Queensland, and Longreach Regional Council, to align with celebrations for Queensland Women’s Week and International Women’s Day.

Red Ridge once again brought a WOW factor to celebrations by opening the event on the Friday night at Longreach Civic and Cultural Centre, presenting a Red Ridge the Label catwalk experience with the Diamantina and Georgina collections featuring artwork from Two Sisters Talking, Anpanuawa Joyce Crombie, and Aulpunda Jean Barr Crombie.   A special feature included a unique one off design representing a collection from artworks by local Longreach artists.

The Conversation, Workshop Programs and Marketplace took place from 12pm on Saturday 5 to 12pm on Sunday 6 March which culminated in ‘The Future is Ours’ catered lunch celebrating International Women’s Day!

Saturday night went off with a bang, with comedian and mother-of-six Jenny Wynter & guests presenting the Funny Mummies Cabaret Spectacular.
