Happy New Year 2024. We welcome you to our Crafty Women of Brunswick Heads, Country Women’s Association. We are women who not only enjoy various crafts, but cherish the company of fellow women and raising much needed funds for specific projects within our community and beyond.

At the end of 2023, we were busy bees. The CWA celebrated with local centenarian, Joyce Rankin – happy 100th to our dear pioneer. We held a working bee to clear out the front yard and remove the old stumps in the back to make mowing easier – a big thank you to our members and the husbands who helped. A sewing machine was also donated to the CWA, and we have been making great use of it in our crafts. We also had our Christmas Party, which was a lot of fun.

Our last Market Day of 2023, held in December, was a great success, and attended by many people looking for homemade and unique Christmas gifts. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for our next Market Day. You can find lots of delicious goodies and handmade crafts.

Interested in joining the CWA in 2024? Our gatherings provide a warm and welcoming space for women of all ages to come together, learn, and celebrate their artistic endeavours. You can expect lively conversations, as women gather to share stories, and exchange ideas. Our Friday gatherings from 10am – 2pm (excluding public holidays) provide a platform for continuous learning and personal development. All women are welcome – please bring a gold coin donation.

Hall hire is also available. Email brunscwa@gmail.com to find out more.
