A big congratulations to our Linkage Project partner Red Ridge Interior Queensland Ltd who received recognition from Blackall-Tambo Regional Council and was awarded the Cultural Event of the Year Award for Dress the Central West.
Dress the Central West is a wearable art project, fashion parade, and reflection of community creativity and resilience. As the Red Ridge team describe:
Dress the Central West has been a collaborative journey that has inspired, engaged, encouraged and empowered local people within central west communities to find “Beauty within the Drought”. The Gala has showcased regional designers, models, dancers, avant-garde makeup artists, and local hair stylists in a collective production that tells the story of our Outback.
Designs and images from the event are now exhibited at Grassland Art Gallery in Tambo.
