Art with a Heart to help NZ earthquake victims
A collection of Kiwi art goes under the hammer in Queenstown tomorrow (March 25) to help raise money for the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal.
In the past two weeks some of the country’s most prolific and well-loved artists have joined those already donating precious artworks to the unique Art with Heart auction, to be held at Queenstown’s Millbrook Resort.
Art with Heart organiser and artist Ed Cruikshank said some “real gems†and very special pieces were among the collection.
“The response has been quite staggering. The auction is a great example of how people can carry on with their normal lives and continue giving to the people of Christchurch.â€
Pieces are expected to sell from as little as $500 up to $30,000, with organisers hoping to raise a total of $100,000.
Those not attending the event in person can place phone bids.
Art with Heart will be held at the Millhouse Conference Centre on Friday March 25. Viewing will be from 5.30pm and the auction will follow at 6.30pm local time.
All proceeds will go to the Red Cross New Zealand 2011 Earthquake Appeal.
