A heartfelt thank you to Doug Moran and Archibald Prize finalist Daniel Butterworth for his generous support in donating this incredible painting for raffle at this year’s Mountain Festival! Each ticket you buy directly supports the future of Ash Wednesday, a powerful play that captures the resilient spirit of our community in the face of the 1982 Macedon bushfires.
