The Caravana girls (Issue 3) are back in town. Based in Chitral, Northern Pakistan for most of the year, our interview with these two gutsy, incredibly creative young women was one of our most popular ever.

Since we interviewed them in 2004 Cath Braid and Kirsten Ainsworth have produced a number of collections, narrowly escaped the Pakistani earthquakes of 2006, and worked with the UN for the Afghan and Iraqi elections. Caravna’s pieces are part of the Smart works exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum from 30 March - Jul-Aug 2007. The girls will also be telling their story on 28 March 6pm for 6.30pm at the Coles Theatre Powerhouse Museum 500 Harris Street, Ultimo. It’s bound to be special. Tickets are $15.00 (bookings essential (02) 9217 0222, edserve@phm.gov.au, or online) and include a free pass to see Smart works on 31 March or 1 April.
