"BLACK OR WHITE IT JUST AINT RIGHT: EXPO & FUNDRAISER"
The Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Co-Operative are calling for the donation of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal artworks so that we can sell them on to raise funds towards keeping the
Boomalli building as an exhibition space.
You're invited to "BLACK OR WHITE IT JUST AINT RIGHT: EXPO & FUNDRAISER" starting on Saturday, May 1 and 2, at 10:00am, all through the day.
There will also be an official opening for the associated exhibition so please stay tuned.
* Artists Expo:
Artists/Curators and Academics will be speaking on a topic of their choice for 30 minutes.
* GALA Exhibition:
We are seeking a donation of artworks, for inclusion in the GALA exhibition, to assist us in saving the Co-operative. (Remember to send us an artists statement, bio and suggested pricing as well if possible.)
We will be sending out at list of participants soon.
This is challenging the imminent closure of our longest running Aboriginal Artists' flagship for self determination.
With the intervention raging like a wild bushfire and degrading the last embers of hope it is TIME to stand up and be counted.
It is TIME to stand as Brother and Sister, Aunt and Uncle, as a united
community of people who care about saving history and not letting it
get wiped off the Australian history slate like so much of our history.
Where to deliver works: Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Co-operative Wednesday to Friday from 10:30am until 2:00pm.
Why: Because it is for one of the best causes that you will be asked to help.
Address: 55-59 Flood Street Leichhardt, Sydney
When: by April 27th, 2010
