WOMEN'S CREATIVE CENTRE

The Women's Creative Centre Inc. was established in 1975, the International Women's Year, to provide a place for women of all ages and backgrounds to gather in a relaxing and friendly atmosphere to practise craft skills in group activities and enable women to sell their craft on a commission basis... On 26 April 1975 a group of women called a public meeting to set up a Women's Place as a project for International Women's Year. Sixty women attended this meeting and decided to call this organisation the ‘Women's Creative Arts Centre'. Norma Nord was elected as President of the group. This proved to be an excellent choice as Norma was an intelligent, hardworking, fair, and caring president for many years. She was a good speaker as well, with quite a few jokes thrown in with her speeches. She spoke at High Schools, Church Groups, Women's Hospital, and other not-for-profit organisations such as the Blue Nursing Service (now Blue Care).
