What does the AWC do?
Our club began in 1968 when a few American women came together with a vision. The vision became the AWCPerth and has continued for more than 40 years. Our club promotes fellowship between American women and Australians and others to help close the culture gap while living in Australia. We have a combination of evening and day socials to cater for every member's needs.
