The event, which has gone from strength to strength since its
inception in 2005, saw sixty donated works sold and auctioned off,
raising over $540,000 for life saving research.
Prospective buyers were able to view the collection during the
week at Nellie Castan Gallery, with the exhibition culminating at
Luminare, in South Melbourne at the Chairman's preview night on
Friday and the auction and party on Saturday night.
Both nights were a resounding success, with a glamorous crowd of
over 470 people collectively enjoying the best food, wine and
entertainment.
All funds raised goes directly to research into conditions such
as diabetes, allergies, asthma, premature birth and mental health
problems, conditions which are on the rise in our children, and
cancer and genetic disorders that remain unsolved.
The Art for Science event has raised almost $1.5 million for
child health research since 2005.
It is because of the artists' generosity that we are able to
realise the Art for Science vision. We offer our sincere thanks to
the artists and their galleries.
