State Cultural
The Cultural Committee covers a range of cultural events, competitions, tours and adds some drama for CWA members.
Events are coordinated for members to participate in, from drama to art, to touring a city and learning more about its cultural mix and make up.
Competitions are run each year and these CWA activities are sponsored by our partner Scott & Broad who have been loyal supporters of the Association for many years.
In the Cultural Competitions senior refers to those over 18 (adults); junior refers to those under 18.
Please read the rules and guidelines in the Procedures Manual carefully before entering the competition.

The art competition and porcelain painting competition are open to all members. Details are in the Procedures Manual. The porcelain painting coupons are in the October Journal. The art competition coupons are in the December Journal.
Art must be ready to be hung with strong string on the back as stated in the rules on in the Procedures Manual.
