Food Preservers Union of Australia


Artist: Kathie Muir

"We wanted to emphasise women and men working equally and co-operatively and the power of workers in the production process. We worked collaboratively with Kathie Muir (SA Unions Art Officer) during both the research and design stages.
The decision to have a fabric banner worked in well with the idea of depicting the types of fruit and vegetables processed by our members. It was also important to emphasise the union's commitment to unity, peace and equality.
We're very proud of our banner. It's one of the ways we can show people what we stand for."

Noel Treharne, State Secretary
