Golden Women shines the light on amazing women of the Central West goldfields, exploring little known stories of the complex and diverse journeys and lives of some amazing women who travelled to lands unknown.

Hosted by Kim Deacon in the historic village of Hill End, this multimedia presentation, using sound, text, light, moving image and live music, travels to several locations around the village, exploring the powerful contribution women made to the harsh, frontier landscapes.

Throughout the presentation, Kim will be performing songs she composed to poems by Louisa Lawson, Judith Wright, Mary Gilmore and Glen Tomasetti on various harps and piano. This is a one hour walking tour between four venues, but can be car driven between the venues which include; the Presbyterian Church, Miners' Assay Office, Great Western Store and Royal Hall.

Sunday, November 4, 11.30am and 2pm, starting at the Presbyterian Church. Free entry but bookings are essential as numbers are limited. Enquiries and bookings to productionartau@gmail.com or call 6337 8333.
