Community story
Making up
ICV is an organisation based on strong values and a philosophy of capacity building and sustainability.
As an ICV staff member, I believe we should practice what we preach, so I jumped at the chance in March to be part of a project on Goulburn and Croker Islands in West Arnhem Land.
We held beauty therapy workshops with school girls aged from 11 to 16 with the workshops also open to the ladies of the community
Leaving an imprint on Wadeye
Lucy Butler left the comfort zone of her neighbourhood in Sydney to work with the Palngun Wurnangat Association in Wadeye NT, helping women produce screen prints and etchings, and to assist with the coordination of the Wadeye Arts and Culture Festival.
“The Arts Centre has a group of very talented artists. I was able to push their designs a little further and play with other printing techniques,” she explained.
