Craft Victoria was established in 1970. To celebrate the organisation's 40th Anniversary in 2010, we have reaffirmed the Life Members program.
Life Membership of Craft Victoria is conferred by the Board of Craft Victoria in recognition of an outstanding contribution to the organisation through actions which:
- Result in Craft Victoria being substantially, demonstrably and positively changed by that contribution; and
- Occurs over a significant period of time (at least 5 years); and
- Required substantial and commendable personal input; and
- Can be clearly documented and corroborated.
