Audrey Skips
By: Andrea Rowe and Lisa Coutts

Audrey Skips is a tribute to The Skipping Girl, Melbourne's first neon sign and a timeless treasured landmark.

Andrea Rowe and Lisa Coutts come together to create a story about community and kindness, legacy and conservation.

Bright and shiny Audrey loves to skip a jump rope rhyme, right off her rooftop and through the sleeping streets of a city. Skittering across the skyline and peering in windows, Audrey spies folks struggling with hard times as her own light dims.

With a little help from city friends, Audrey's light and her hopeful spirit shine again, brighter than ever.
