Thank you for a fabulous festival!

Great weather, fantastic crowds and wonderful events have made this possibly the best festival ever! Thanks to all for your patronage and ongoing support. It would not be possible without the generous efforts of our committee, volunteers and staff, the deep pockets of our donors, sponsors and supporters, both in-kind and with financial contributions.

Tax Deductible Donations

Every contribution counts - and it's not too late to make a difference to our ongoing costs with a Tax Deductible donation before the end of the financial year.

Silent Auction

Calling all art enthusiasts and supporters of the arts! We are thrilled to announce a fantastic opportunity to acquire a stunning painting by none other than the renowned artist, Gabriella Possum Nungurrayi, and support the Woodend Winter Arts Festival at the same time.

In collaboration with the Country House Woodend, we are hosting a silent auction for an exquisite artwork by Gabriella Possum Nungurrayi.

Gabriella Possum is one of Australia’s premier female artists from the Central Australian Desert who is currently working in Melbourne. Her work is represented in the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra, and the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory, and in the Royal Collection, and now you have the chance to own a piece of her exceptional talent.

We thank Country House Woodend for their generous donation. Please visit them when you are in Woodend.
