Cirque Du Joy – Reset the Dial: The Women’s Resilience Centre’s Most Critical Fundraising Event

   

The Women’s Resilience Centre is proud to announce Cirque Du Joy – Reset the Dial, during Vivid Sydney for our most important annual fundraising event, taking place this year to support our mission of breaking the devastating cycle of domestic abuse in Australia. With only 1% government funding, we rely entirely on the goodwill of the community and corporate Australia to sustain our work and provide essential support services for women and families recovering from trauma.

Cirque Du Joy is more than just a night out—it is a celebration of joy after the toughest of days, a beacon of hope, and a reminder that recovery is not just about overcoming hardship but also about reclaiming life’s joyful moments. You will hear stories of recovery, resilience and inspiration.

An Unforgettable Night of Joy and Connection

This joy-filled gala will be an unforgettable evening featuring an extraordinary line-up of speakers, performers, and media ambassadors. The night will be hosted by Australia’s leading speaker, Robyn Moore AM, and supported by award-winning journalists Tracey Spicer and Juanita Phillips. We are also honoured to have esteemed Authors and Ambassadors Mike Munro, Tom Carroll, Lisa Mcadams, Stephenie Rodriguez, Daniel Principe and Graeme Cowan lending their voices to this critical cause. 

The Women’s Resilience Centre’s primary mission is resetting and rebuilding lives. They see a future where all women and families impacted by domestic abuse and trauma are supported to recover, build resilience and thrive. 

The evening will open with a breath-taking opening performance by the Indigenous Children’s Dance Group, Dhinawan Yarn and Entertainment setting the tone for a night of celebration, resilience, and community. Circus performers will dazzle guests upon arrival, creating a vibrant atmosphere of wonder and joy.

Why Joy Matters

Joy is a fundamental human right. It is more than just a fleeting emotion—it is a state of mind that fosters resilience, fulfilment, and contentment. In the journey of recovery from domestic abuse and trauma, joy must be reclaimed. Trauma is not just about the bad days lost but also about the good days missed. By celebrating joy, we strengthen social bonds, empower survivors, and restore the wholeness of life.

How to Support the Cause

The Women’s Resilience Centre invites individuals, corporations, and philanthropists to stand with us in resetting the dial on domestic abuse. Last year we supported 507 women in 163 regions of Australia with capability building programs, employment readiness, Financial Resilience, Mentors and a safe centre and shop for support. We rely on this annual event to support our funding.

Cirque Du Joy is an opportunity to contribute to a future where every survivor has access to the support, resources, and community needed to rebuild their lives and helps break the intergenerational cycle of abuse. Stop Domestic Abuse in Australia.

Join us for a night to remember and be a part of a movement that transforms pain into empowerment and despair into joy.

Wedding Island

Is there anything better than a Scotland Island wedding or a comedy in its Community Hall? In May 2025 we bring you both!
The team who last year brought you 'Secret Island' returns with another hilarious comedy. Once again written by that elusive islander Bogue Anthill, 'Wedding Island' is directed by Elvina Bay resident Sophie Lepowic. 

The cast includes (in order of appearance) May Blackband, Roy Baker, Alix Ah-Pet, Nettie Lodge, Sophie Lepowic, Mara Syngros, Jess McGowan, Larry Woods, Ian White and Lizzie Brand. Stage management is by Gilli Unwin.

'Secret Island' was a sell-out, so don't miss 'Wedding Island'. A nubile couple, seventy rowdy guests and a frisky brush turkey. What could possibly go wrong?

A special ferry will depart from the island (Tennis Court wharf) at the end of the first night's performance (9 May), returning audience members to the mainland (Church Point).

MAG&M stages Signs in the Sand

Runs until Sunday, 11 May 2025 - 10:00 am to 5:00 pm very day
Manly Art Gallery & Museum’s (MAG&M) is partnering with contemporary artist Anna Madeleine Raupach to create an innovative approach to raising awareness for environmental issues in its latest exhibition Signs in the Sand: Anna Madaleine Raupach’s Climate Sign Archive, opening on 11 March 2025.

Signs in the Sand, an immersive augmented reality (AR) installation, is a continuation of respected artist, Anna Madeleine Raupach’s Climate Sign Project. The exhibition will form part of MAG&M’s program for Climate Action Week (10-16 March).

In mid-February the Collective for Environmental Art & Design (CEAD) Forum is being held, where participants will be asked to create climate action signs for Signs in the Sand. Raupach will digitise these signs, add them to her growing archive and place them virtually in the sand along Manly Cove.  

During the Signs in the Sand exhibition, 11 March to 11 May 2025, visitors can engage with these artworks via a QR code downloaded to their electronic device.

Northern Beaches Mayor, Sue Heins expressed enthusiasm for the premise and personal engagement of the exhibition.

“Signs in the Sand is a powerful example of how art and technology can come together to address urgent environmental issues.

“This exhibition not only highlights the creativity and innovation of our community but also encourages them to reflect on the role we all play in fostering environmental and sustainability awareness and action,” Mayor Heins said.

The exhibition will feature digitised signs from Raupach’s archive, as well as the new signs created during the CEAD (Collective for Environmental Art & Design) Forum in February. These AR installations will be displayed along Manly Cove’s beachfront and within MAG&M, providing an immersive interactive experience for visitors. QR codes placed at MAG&M will link visitors to the project’s AR platform, allowing them to engage with the artwork in a unique and meaningful way.

Signs in the Sand is part of MAG&M’s commitment to presenting art and ideas that drive real-world environmental change through the CEAD program. The exhibition aligns with MAG&M’s mission to inspire interdisciplinary creativity and meaningful dialogue about sustainability.

The exhibition is free and open to the public, making it accessible for everyone to enjoy and participate in this important conversation about the environment.

See first-hand how art and technology can work together towards environmental change.

This exhibition is part of Climate Action Week.

Surfing Mums & Dads

Want to join the best Mums (& Dads) group on earth? Surfing Mums Australia is a not for profit organisation with groups across Australia. We take turns surfing and looking after each other’s children. 

The Avalon group meets Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 9.30am and the Palm Beach group meets on Thursdays. The Mona Vale group meets Wednesday 9am, Narrabeen on Wednesday at 9:30 am, Dee Why / Long Reef on Friday 9am, Freshwater on Monday at 9am and Manly on Wednesday at 9am. 

Our surf swap meet ups welcome parents of all levels, whether you’re a total novice or have been riding waves for a lifetime. Meet ups are run by member volunteer coordinators, and take place at a specific beach location at designated weekly times and days – although some groups switch locations depending on the best beach conditions on that given day. Coordinators post updates on each group’s private Facebook page prior to each meetup, so be sure to check for updates before you go. When you arrive, you’ll be paired up with a parent who will be your surf swap partner. Meet ups generally run for two hours, so there’s potential for each parent to have roughly an hour of ocean time, and an hour of child minding – although new parents may like to work up to this time goal slowly. Parents decide between themselves who’ll surf first, and who’s surfing second. The term surfing is open to interpretation here; you can surf, body board, SUP, go for a beach run or do some laps. However you’d like to spend your ocean time is up to you.

We welcome all levels of surfers, from shredders to absolute newbies, any anyone who cares for a little person is welcome to join.
