Good Tunes Charity Bush Dance #2 for 2025 for Care Works

A community bush dance with the Good Tunes Band open to all ages. Dances are walked through and called – no experience required!

All entry sales will be donated to support Care Works, a creative arts social enterprise initiative by Green Fox Studios. It providing mentoring, training and access to e-commerce platforms for communities impacted by the justice system—empowering individuals through creativity and self-employment.

Green Fox Training Studio is proud to be Australia’s first not-for-profit creative training facility established within a high-security prison. Working with prisoners intent on turning their lives around, we now offer comprehensive work-ready and digital skills training to detained and at-risk youth, to women leaving the criminal justice system, and to women from disadvantaged, migrant, asylum seeker, and refugee backgrounds.

Their programs are delivered by experienced and lived experience-trainers with deep knowledge of disadvantage, criminal justice, mental health, and social issues, in a supportive and safe environment that fosters sensitive communication and features wraparound support. This is leading to reductions in crime, reoffending, and incarceration rates; improved social integration; and an increase in mental and social wellbeing for our participants.

The dance callers and musicians are donating their time and effort.
