WITH local talent abounding in the areas of cookery, arts and crafts, and gardening, it is fitting that Euroa holds its first expo to showcase such talent and bring the community together under one roof.

The inaugural Euroa Expo will be held on the weekend of 21-22 June in the Band Hall on Kirkland Avenue.

The idea was born from a Facebook post on the Euroa Community Page calling a meeting in January 2025, and which resulted in a very positive response.

The expo will have displays by individuals, community groups, arts and crafts classes, food preparation demonstrations, and gardening demonstrations by the Yiiro Community Garden.

There will also be displays by the Euroa Garden Club, Bowerbirds Collection, local artist Mary Peacock, and Coral Saunders with her fabrics, patchwork accessories, and a range of quilts.

A craft makers market will be set up along with light refreshments provided by the CWA Euroa.

The Euroa Expo is being delivered in partnership with Community Learning Euroa Inc., and with guest speakers on Saturday afternoon and workshops and a maker’s market on the Sunday, it will make for a weekend of fun education.

Groups and individuals are still welcome to display and run their workshops.

Please email euroaexpo@gmail.com or download a booking form via Facebook or call 0414 740 778.

Entry is free/gold coin donation.
