Who we are…
We are interested individual felt-makers that have come together from all over Australia to work towards the development and running of the 19th Southern Hemisphere Felters Convergence for 2027. We believe that this approach has never been done before so we are exploring new ways of operating. We have incorporated the group as the Southern Hemisphere Felters Convergence and consolidated finances so that new organisers for 2029 and beyond will always have a good working base and ongoing methodologies.
Our Shared Purpose
We are a diverse group united to design and deliver a Southern Hemisphere Felters Convergence 2027 program that inspires and fosters creativity.
We commit to working collaboratively - across the committee and subcommittees and the registrants - to achieve our shared goals with integrity, imagination and purpose.
We work together with respect for each other, listening and questioning thoughtfully, reflecting - always collaborating and always remaining accountable
Our Commitment
We understand that bringing together diverse people demands patience, curiosity and generosity of spirit.
