Of course, I would also like to acknowledge Anneliese Seubert, who was the face of Fashfest and gave the event additional prominence and prestige. There were many people who contributed to make the event possible, including many generous sponsors and the front and back of house support.
The sponsors were the Centenary of Canberra, ACT Government, ActewAGL, Audi Centre Canberra, Canberra airport, Canprint Communications, Capital Training Institute, Chalk Design, Clarity Communications Australia, CMA Training Group, Dendy Cinemas, East Hotel, Eden Road Wines Australia, Eightysix, Elite Sound and Lighting, Evolve, Form Haircutters, GHD, It is isn’t it, Leighton Hutchinson Photography, M: Artistry, Meyer Vandenberg Lawyers, National Film and Sound Archive, Pictacase, Rojo Vinyl Customs, Screencraft, Shorty’s, SNP Security, Stricklands 1842, the Canberra Times, Tongue & Groove, Westfield Belconnen and Woden, WIN Television, and Zoo Advertising.
To put on events like this one requires vision, risk taking and the ability to convert an idea into reality. Canberra needs events such as Fashfest and we need people such as the Hutchinsons who are able to make it happen. I thank them for their ongoing contribution to Canberra and I join with thousands of others in looking forward to the next Fashfest. For more information, people should visit www.fashfest.com.au.
