On International Women’s Day, from 5:30pm to 6:30pm (Melbourne time), a walk of sisterhood will take place within the city of Melbourne to encourage solidarity amongst women and artists and those who support the values of equity for women and other marginalised groups.
As we walk past significant locations including: Queen Victoria Women’s centre trust, the Nova Peris Statue, the National Gallery of Victoria’s Bark Ladies exhibition, the Yours, Mine and Ours exhibition at the immigration museum, and the Creative Co-operative, we invite attendees to reflect, be inspired and to share in the bonds of sisterhood, in the many ways that women of colour and their allies choose to define them. We will meet at the Pioneer Women’s Memorial in Kings Domain and finish near the University of Melbourne.
This event is part of This Is Who We Are (TIWWA) which is part of the British Council's UK-Australia season.
