Some of country’s finest musicians, writers, comedians and podcasters are coming together for the inaugural GOOD LUCK – an all-day fundraiser for Girls Rock! Australia taking over both levels of The Curtin in Melbourne on Sunday October 8.
Girls Rock! Australia is a national network of not-for-profit camps, comprised of the established Girls Rock! Canberra, Girls Rock! Melbourne and Girls Rock! Brisbane, and Girls Rock! Wollongong and Girls Rock! Sydney which are starting in the next 12 months. Each camp is open to female, trans and gender diverse youth aged 10-17. Inspired by programs developed in the USA, the collective mission is to empower, building self-esteem and confidence by amplifying their voices through female-led music education and performance, built on principles of access and equity, social action, empowerment and community spirit. During the week, campers form bands, learn instruments, attend creative workshops and enjoy lunchtime performances from some of Australia’s coolest musicians. Names that have performed in the past include Courtney Barnett, Camp Cope, Jen Cloher, Cable Ties, Rainbow Chan and more.
Every cent raised through Good Luck #1 will go towards funding full and partial scholarships to each of the Girls Rock! Australia camps, so youth from any background can find their place and continue to grow their love of music.
