HELP SUPPORT A YOUNG BLAK ENTREPRENEUR

Hi everyone- my daughter Alyce (15), started a bead jewellery making business over 12 months ago and in the February 2022 floods we lost a majority of her stock. Her business is called Alyce T designs on FB she’s an inspiring young Indigenous entrepreneur but since the floods she has temporarily closed so that we can restock. Unfortunately it’s been a longer process than we would have liked to help her restart and so we are asking for your assistance.

She’s hard working and motivated and deserves a hand to help her restart if you can help a little or a lot we truly appreciate it. Louise & Alyce Togo.

Don't forget NAIDOC is just around the corner. A great time to stock up & support a young Blak business.

WINYARR COLLECTION OUT NOW! Designed by Alkina Edwards 🖤❤️💛

Through our partnership with Culture is Life we have had the unique opportunity to collaborate with a young First Nations artist, Alkina Edwards, whose art is inspired by the stories passed down from her family, community and Country. Alkina has proud matriarchal connections to Yorta Yorta, Wemba Wemba, Mutthi Mutthi and Wiradjuri tribes. Alkina draws on the history and experiences of her people to create artwork that represents female empowerment and strength.

Winyarr means ‘Aboriginal woman/women’ in Yorta Yorta Language. The artwork in the Winyarr Collection depicts a group of women along the sacred Dungala (Murray River), linking arms to represent the Aborginal women that have been here for thousands of years.
