ArtsNational Narrabri congratulated long serving committee member Annie Lampe, who was presented with a Lifetime Membership award at their first lecture of the year held on March 4, 2024. Annie has given years of her
time, dedication and commitment to the ADFAS/ArtsNational organisation. Dating all the way back to 30 years ago, she was an integral part of the inaugural committee and many committees that followed. Annie served terms as Vice Chair and Chair and has been a driving force behind ArtsNational since 1994, with only short breaks taken in between committee positions. The event, however, was tinged with sadness as the Narrabri society paid their respects to the recent passing of their inaugural Chair, Rania Manchee. Rania was our friend, our inspiration and our leader. She will be greatly missed.
