AVCL 2025 - Graduation & End of Year Celebration

We are pleased to invite you to our 2025 End-of-Year Celebration, an evening that recognises the contribution of community leadership across our region and marks the graduation of the 2025 Annual Program cohort. This occasion brings together alumni, funders, supporters, and participants from across all of our programs, and we look forward to welcoming both familiar and new faces.

The evening will feature a two-course sit-down meal and time for conversation and connection. We are delighted to announce our keynote speaker, Marlo Baragwanath, Victorian Ombudsman. Appointed to the role last year following her position as Chief Executive Officer of the Independent Broad-based Anti-corruption Commission, Marlo brings a wealth of leadership experience and a strong commitment to fairness, integrity, and human rights.

Alongside the keynote, the evening will celebrate the graduation of our 2025 Annual Program cohort, provide an update on this year’s activities, and highlight the many ways individuals and communities continue to strengthen our shared future.

We thank the Wangaratta Turf Club for their generosity in providing in-kind sponsorship for the event.
