16 Days of Activism – Crochet Flower Project

The Crochet Flower Project is a shire-wide craft project where community members can crochet, wear and share orange flowers during 16 Days of Activism.

The project aims to raise awareness of gender-based violence, and remove stigma by encouraging conversations about respect, gender equality and the drivers of violence against women.

Collect crochet kits from Castlemaine Civic Centre, Castlemaine Library, Castlemaine Community House or The Good Op Shop.

Donate orange yarn and crochet hooks by dropping them off at the locations listed above.

Crochet orange flowers which you can wear as a brooch, gift to family and friends, and drop-off at the collection points for others to enjoy.

Wear and share your orange crochet flowers during 16 Days of Activism (25 November to 10 December).
