Celebrating the Centenary of Canberra

The Textiles Sub-Section at the 2013 ActewAGL Royal Canberra Show offers a range of classes to enter for those who enjoy using their imagination and originality to create wearable items! This sub-section also includes millinery.

What Classes can be entered in the Textiles Sub-Section?
