This Saturday 20th June is the 16th Aurora Ball and is being held at Sydney Town Hall. I've been kindly asked to donate artworks for their auction to raise money for the Aurora Group.
The Aurora Group, as written on their website says- ' is a charity, raising funds to disburse to gay, lesbian and transgender community organisations. Aurora exists so people can donate to a broad range of causes that benefit the community. It is the fund raising organisation people choose when they want their money to benefit the community as a whole and not just one specific cause.'
I am donating 'Embryonic' 2012 (see below) and 'Shifting Sand' 2012. And this year, bidding on donated prizes can be done online prior to the event. Just visit HERE
'Embryonic' 2012. 57cm x 57cm. Paper, Pandorea pandorana seeds, Pine needles.
This years Gala Ball is being hosted by Andrew Mercado (Andrew is an author, commentator and TV personality), and Nath Valvo (Nath is a stand-up comedian, radio host and writer). Entertainment for the evening is set to be a stunning with the singing talents of Katie Noonan amongst others. I'm looking forward to the evening and hope the organisation raises a substantial amount of money.
'Shifting Sand' 2012. 44cm x 44cm. Paper, sand, palm fronds
A big thank you to Alison King (Co-chair for the Aurora Group) for contacting me and asking for artwork to donate to this great cause.
