Canning's Purple Roads

The Purple Road Project is a collaborative artwork initiative that aims to raise awareness about elder abuse.

Thank you to Beananging Kwuurt Institute, Rostrata Craft Group and all the creative community members who helped design an amazing three Purple Roads for Canning last month! The participants all commented on the strength, support and solidarity they found, while making all the individual flowers representing a symbol of Elder Abuse Awareness.

You're invited to come and see the amazing Canning Purple Roads at Riverton Library from 8 - 27 June 2024, in recognition of World Elder Abuse Awareness Day on 15 June. There will also be resources available for those wanting support or more information about this important human rights issue.
