Craft Market and Open Day. We are trying a new venue for this event, and are holding this event at the RSL Sub-Branch over the long weekend in May, the 5 - 7 May 2012. This event will showcase all our wonderful work, which will be on sale.

Carnival of Flowers 2012 will again be held in September 2012. We will have an exhibition at the Toowoomba RSL Sub-Branch, from Sat 22nd September to Thu 27th September 2012. This is a wonderful venue, with enough room to fully display all our members wonderful creations, and provide space for members to demonstrate our crafts.
