International Women’s Day 2019 celebrated by Alt and industry friends at its Darlinghurst studio

Alt celebrated International Women’s Day last Friday with a garden party at its Darlinghurst studio, bringing together the very best of Australia’s creative community from all disciplines.

The guest list included over 100 of the brightest and best talent working in the industry, with key individuals from creative agencies, production companies, post production and sound houses all gathered together at 120 Darlinghurst Road.

Along with the industry leaders, junior female creatives and unsigned female directors were also invited along in the hope that a connection made could assist future career paths and opportunities for all.

While guests enjoyed a fine sunny afternoon with some delicious food and wines, they were also encouraged to donate to local charity, Lou’s Place, a safe space for women in need. Those donations came in the form of cash or donated clothing, which will be sold on through independent clothing store, Bestow – with all proceeds going to Lou’s Place.

Says Aborah Buick, executive producer: “After last year’s successful event we really wanted to do something this year that had a direct impact on improving the lives of women. As well as cash, we chose to partner with Bestow to assist in raising funds for Lou’s Place. The response was pretty heart-warming. Thanks to all of the men and women who helped us have a great day, celebrating and promoting the best of the female talent in Australia.”
