The Alice Springs Beanie Festival is a community- based event that began in 1997 with a ‘beanie party’,organised by Adi Dunlop. In the early years, the festival was run by a group of friends on a volunteer basis. The core group has slowly grown into a committed band of beanie-ologists. We know our beanies! The festival was organised to sell beanies crocheted by Aboriginal women in remote communities. It has grown into a fun event where Aboriginal and non- Aboriginal artists share their culture and exhibit together. The festival is unique because of the incredible amount of community participation and our unique ties with local Aboriginal organisations.
