Matriarchs, Mentors and Aunties: Stories that Celebrate the Elder Women in our Lives

Every generation has women who light the path. This night is about them.

Last updated: 4 February 2026

Six women, six decades, sharing stories of the grandmothers, mentors and icons who showed us what’s possible.

It’s not just nostalgia – it’s wisdom, grit and love passed forward. When we honour the women who paved the way, we see more clearly how to walk our own.

If you’ve ever looked up to an older woman and thought, “Because of her, I can”, this show is for you.

This event is proudly supported by the City of Sydney and the Older Women’s Network NSW, shining a spotlight on the power and impact of elder women in our lives.
