The goal of Pink Up Mudgee was to involve the whole community and the idea has continued to grow and now involves 16 other towns in the local region such as Kandos, Rylstone and Orange but also from across the country including Townsville, Port Pirie, Newman, Canberra, and Wagga.
Mudgee’s aim is to have as many shop fronts turn pink to match the Mudgee Clock Tower which will be shining pink, along with a range of events and much needed fundraisers that will be hosted throughout October.
