The Jilkminggan OpShop was established in early 2016 after a call-out for clothing gained Nationwide support. Since then our dedicated group of women have gone from strength to strength, expanding their business by creating pop-up OpShops at nearby communities and festivals, providing much-needed clothing, shoes, bedding and materials to people in the local area.
The funds generated have supported the development of our own Arts Center, Bringgan Art Centre and the purchase of art supplies, tools and equipment. Our artists have been busy creating beautiful handmade clothes from recycled fabrics, bags, necklaces, paintings and traditional carvings.
The widespread support of people all over Australia has been overwhelming and we are thankful to everyone who has contributed and supported us on this journey.
