Turning 10 warrants a special celebration, and this September SisterWorks is holding a Cultural Festival, the SisterWorks Spectacular.
The festival is going to be a fun day out featuring entrepreneurial women from migrant, refugee and asylum-seeker backgrounds. We have a range of stalls and activities where you can browse, listen, watch, take part, and of course eat!
Over the past 10 years, we have supported over 2,000 women (our Sisters) from 105 countries to build a better life in Australia through skills training and work opportunities.
This event is open to the public and entry is free. A great day out for family and friends where you can experience vibrant cultural dance and musical performances, delicious food stalls, 40+ stalls offering handmade and ethical products, lovingly crafted right here in Melbourne, family and child friendly activities as well as community organisations that also work with migrant, refugee and asylum seekers.
The Oratory is wheelchair accessible.
Gender-neutral and accessible toilets are available close to the venue.
