The first wall was made to celebrate "Ladies, bring a plate", which was what Ladies were asked to do at community get togethers. The wall was divided into diamonds and the community of Moonambel were invited to come and fill in a diamond with broken pieces of tiles and plates. Donations of tiles and ceramic plates etc were given by the community to the project.
Many people learnt about the process of mosaicing, through participating in the project. The project was organised by Deborah Wood, Sanne Malkaer and Debbie Qadri.
(Above) This is the second side of the building that was mosaiced, again by a group of about ten people from the community. It was completed in one day. A very hot day. It has the ubiquitous teapot and the word 'Ladies' on it to signify that this building contains the "Ladies" restrooms.
The third wall has two tea cup and saucers on it and the words 'Ladies, bring a plate'.
You can find these mosaics at the recreation reserve which is on the left side of the road as you drive towards Moonambel from the Sunraysia Highway.
